Thank you! That helped with the whole xDocument error. However, now I'm getting errors about the values not being able to convert to a string (and vice versa).

I am using infopath 2007 but most of my code is backward compatible with 2003. If you are writing the code to be compatible with 2007, then I don't think you use xDocument. In my vb.net code when referring to a text box I use: thisXDocument.DOM("xpath-to-field").text.

In your case I think you need to use something like this:

Dim field1 As XPathNavigator = Me.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field1", Me.NamespaceManager)

XDocument Error

Hello!

I just made my first real form with Infopath, and I want to add a field that will automatically generate a numeric code based on a name in a different text box. I found code that does this with a case statement. However, I am being told that "XDocument" needs to be declared.

Here is the line:

fieldProduct = XDocument.DOM.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:ProductName").text

I am using the Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications, InfoPath 2007, and VBScripting. I've only just started learning different scripts for work, so I wouldn't be surprised if the solution is something simple.

Thank you!
