I've upgraded my own PC to SP2 and it all works fine now. Thanks for all your help:-)

you need to have at least SP1 installed on each machine

Thanks for the info. However, I will be publishing the form for use by over 4,000 employees - do you know whether they have to have the SP2 as well for the form to work or will it be sufficient to just have it on my machine for designing purposes?

This was a known issue in the initial release of InfoPath. Install the latest service pack (SP2) and your issue should vanish.

Drop-down list and conditional formatting - won't save my changes!

I hope someone can help me with this problem. I've got 3 cascading drop-down lists in my form template (having used Greg's v helpful guide on how to do this!) and now I am trying to apply some conditional formatting to those fields - nothing complicated, just marking them different colours dependent on whether they are blank or not.

All this is fine, and it works, but it doesn't save! If I save the form, the formatting is still there, but if I save the form, close it and reopen, there is no conditional formatting present for that field.

I've had a search around but can't find anything about this bug, although I may not have used the right search terms.... I should add I'm using Infopath 2003 SP1.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks,
