CraigW:

Are you saying not to use the sharepoint lists themselves?

Yes. and the reason is the very problem you trying to solve.

Submit connection should be different. You could use Lists.asmx websevice.

The thing I really like about that approach is its supports [Me] and [Today] filters. If you are not using those ([Me and [Today]) )filters the additional view even not necessary. Filters can be specified in the webservice link. Read the specs of that webservice.

Hi Alec,

Are you saying not to use the sharepoint lists themselves? It seems to work, I just wondered about the updates.

Would performance be better with the web service?

sharepoint datasource updates

CraigW — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 14:28:52 GMT

Hi,

My form has several sharepoint list as datasources. I have changed the default list view to only show 10 items, but infopath is still getting the data for the previous limit in the web-enabled form. The preview in the infopath client shows the correct amount.

What is going on here? Is there some kind of configurable refresh for the datasources?

Thanks,

Craig
