Hi,

Add OnContextChange event to the form and write the code to empty the field if the event is address field.

Ex:

[InfoPathEventHandler(EventType = InfoPathEventType.OnContextChange)]

public void FormEvents_OnContextChange(DocContextChangeEvent e)

{

if (e.Context.nodeName == "my:field8")

{ thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field8").text = "";

}

if (e.Type == "ContextNode")

{

// The XML selection or context has changed.

// Write your code here.

return;

}

Here my:field8 -> Address field

/my:myFields/my:field8 ----> is the xpath of the Address field.
