Re: Change Infopath XML data in a SharePoint library

Hi Shiva,

what I want to do is to edit several forms (or better data of several forms) from one open infopath form.
My idea is to make a ranking of 5 forms. Means that each of this 5 forms has a numer (1 to 5). Now
I want to give the user the chance to edit this top list by changing the numbers (e.g. switch 4 to 2).

Is this possible?

Hello,

Do you want to edit the form which is submitting in SharePoint? Then you have to open form from SharePoint and modify the data and again submit it to SharePoint. For this make sure that while taking the SharePoint Submit connection to check ‘Allow overwrite if file exists' checkbox.

structure of the form is always the same.

What I want to do is to edit several infopath forms form one opend infopath form

me available? I have no idea how to connect a form and how to update data in
a form.

Thanks in advance.
