Hi folks..

I try this: this.print() and it underlines "this" and says it is not declared... furthermore it wont let me publish my form unless I remove that bit of code.

I'm using IP2010 and coding in VB

Anyone know what i am doing wrong?

I'm using InfoPath 2007 with MOSS 2007 however I'm not designing it to be opened in a browser yet so if you are, I'm not certain if this method to create a print button would still work. Also am using C#:

1. In the button properties, click “Edit Form Code” button. In event handler method for your print button click event, add this code:

this.print();

2. In Form Options menu from Tools menu, under Category select Security and Trust.

Under Security Level, check Full Trust (may need to uncheck “Automatically determine security level” first).

In Form Template Signature, click Create Certificate

I probably have some sort of super-duper King of all Infopaths installed... The box was unchecked when I looked.

go to form template

tools -> options -> comaptibility -> uncheck Design a form template that can be opened in a browser or infopath

and then try previewing the form

Hi Qazi,

When I try the button in preview mode, I still get the message that IP could not execute because there is an arror in the form template...

Thanks anyway!

Regards

Hi Qazi,

Thanks for the suggestion, but it still doesn't work :(

I'm not sure if it is a client form of a browser enabled form, but I think it's a client form (infopath opens templates from a sharepoint library locally.

Regards,

try

this.Print();

Print functionality is avaibale only for client forms, it is not avaiable in browser enabled forms

Hi Hilary,

I've been trying to add the print button in IP 07 but I can't get it operational. IP keeps incisting that there is a fault in the code, and therefore it cannot excecute the action (or something like that).

The code I've inserted is

"function CTRL1206_5::OnClick(eventObj)
{
XDocument.PrintOut(); // Write your code here
}"

(the " aren't actually in the code)

Now this makes me feel like such an ass (the donkey, not the buttox), because I read everyone's messages sayin that it's SO easy, yet I can't get it operational,

Could you please help me?

Thanks a milion!

Bart
