Re: Extract email address from Person Picker control

Thank you.

I should have mentioned that this technique was working for the form when it was published as am InfoPath Filler form. It stopped working when I published as a web browser form due (end users on different versions of InfoPath). The emails fail to trigger.

concat(substring-after(AccountId, "\"), "@domain.com") The Account ID returned DOMAIN\userID.

As a rough work around I created the following fields:

Full Name: DisplayName (of person picker control)

First Name: substring-after(IssuerFullName, ",")

Last Name: substring-before(IssuerFullName, ",")

Dot: .

Email suffix: @domain.com

IssuerEmail: concat(IssuerFirstName, Dot, IssuerLastName, santos.com)

I changed the data connection to send to IssuerEmail, and this works.

Only problem is some people have a middle initial in their email address. I've added the email text field to the form and invited users to edit if necessary.

If you know of any better way I'd really appreciate hearing about it.

Thanks again,

Nicolle.

Have you verified the account id contains the domain when the form is used in the browser?

Hi, does anyone know how to extract an email address from a person picker control? I tried using

concat(substring-after(AccountId, "\"), "@domain.com")

Unfortunately the address does not resolve.

Thanks in advance.
