Hi Qwer and welcome to our forum!
How much code do you have? I agree with Franck that converting to managed code is a good idea. VB.NET should do the trick.

Hi,

Unfortunately, you won't be able to mix vbscript with C#. When you first started your design, using Visual Studio.Net would throw you into Managed Code (C# or VB.Net). The route you took was to design a form through IP, which then supports vbscript or jscript.

Sorry, I don't have any scripting to do this.

thanks franck

can this be done in vbscipt?

i am half way through designing a form and i started it using vbscript. I thought that you could only use jscript or vbscript behind the form? how do you go about attaching c# script (while having vbscript)?

Hi,

Yes you can. I am assuming that you will use C# behind your form.

Call from OnLoad:
public void OnLoad(DocReturnEvent e)
{EnableToolBars(false);}

private void EnableToolBars(bool enableToolbar)
{
ObjectWrapper commandBars = (ObjectWrapper) thisApplication.ActiveWindow.CommandBars;
EnableBar(enableToolbar, "Menu Bar", commandBars);
EnableBar(enableToolbar, "Standard", commandBars);
}
private void EnableBar(bool enableToolbar, string barName, ObjectWrapper commandBars)
{
BindingFlags flags = BindingFlags.GetProperty | BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance;
object[] args = new object[] {barName};
CommandBar commandBar = (CommandBar) commandBars.InvokeByName(
"Item",
flags,
args, // arguments
null); // Culture
commandBar.Enabled = enableToolbar;
}

Hope that it helps.

Suppressing Infopath Toolbars

qwer — Tue, 04 Oct 2005 04:41:15 GMT

Is there a way to suppress the standard infopath menu & toolbars (eg, file/edit/view menu, standard and formatting toolbars)? I want the user to basically only see the form appearing with no toolbars, just like a web page viewed in full screen. Can anyone help me out please?
