That's exactly right. So you can use a Sumbit action in a set of rules, but unless you set the button to "Submit" instead of rules and custom code, all that will happen is that the selected Submit data connection will execute.

Think I may have this, can someone confirm..

On a button, if I use Action = Submit - processing will be identical to Submit processing on Main Menu Toolbar...

On a button, if I use Action = Rules & Custom Code - need to create Submit logic from scratch (custom)

Submit Functionality

Using the "Submit Option" off the Main menu, I've set a form up to execute one of two rules based on the condition of the "Forn Number" ...

If "form number" blank - set the value of the form number and submit to a DB and Sharepoint Library

If "form number" not blank - submit to a DB and SharePoint Library

Within the body of the form I'm submitting through various buttons.. I've done this by setting Rules under the Button Properties/Rules and Custom Code, based on various conditions I set a few flags and submit to the DB and Sharepoint Library. I assume I need to duplicate my "form number" logic as well.

My question is.... where is the "Submit Logic" defined under the Submit Option get used? It appears a need to recreate under the Button Properties/Rules and Custom Code. If I were to set up just a submit button Action=Submit, would it execute the same logic (including form number) as defined under the Submit Option?

Thanks, Marty
