Hi,

... additionally you have to include a reference to 'System.Web'.

First you have to add the reference in the solution explorer --- and after this you can define the appropriate 'using' Statement:

...
using System.Web;
...

The you can (for example) define the variable form_URL as:

...
string form_URL = "http://www.google.com";
...

If this would properly function you can replace the url with your concatenated url to open the correct form.

Regards,

Karsten

Thanks for the input, Im getting

Error 1 The name 'HttpContext' does not exist in the current context.

My code looks like this, hope you can advise!

using Microsoft.Office.InfoPath;

using System;

using System.Xml;

using System.Xml.XPath;

namespace ContractsDB

{

public partial class FormCode

{

// Member variables are not supported in browser-enabled forms.

// Instead, write and read these values from the FormState

// dictionary using code such as the following:

// private object _memberVariable

// {

// get

// {

// return FormState["_memberVariable"];

// }

// set

// {

// FormState["_memberVariable"] = value;

// }

// NOTE: The following procedure is required by Microsoft Office InfoPath.

// It can be modified using Microsoft Office InfoPath.

public void InternalStartup()

{

((ButtonEvent)EventManager.ControlEvents["CTRL24_10"]).Clicked += new ClickedEventHandler(CTRL24_10_Clicked);

}

public void CTRL24_10_Clicked(object sender, ClickedEventArgs e)

{

string form_URL = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:URL", NamespaceManager).Value;HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(form_URL , false);

}

Hi Bricey,

... I guess you can open an infopath form within a form with the following code:

using Microsoft.Office.InfoPath;
using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.XPath;
using System.Web;

string form_URL = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:URL", NamespaceManager).Value;

HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(form_URL , false);

Hope that helps...

I have an infopath form that lists all submitted items in a drop down menu.

However, how do I Open one of these forms with a button?

Im guessing I can run a query to populate some fields to view the data but I really want to open the form!

any help, greatly appreciated.
