You can disable that in the Tools / Form Options...

I wonder.... is you desire to modify the save dialog based off wanting to specify your file name? Why not instead of all this, just add a Submit data connection to SharePoint (the library where you have the template published) and then you can use a formula to create the name for the new form in the submit data connection wizard. That way the user doesn't get to pick the file name at all -- you do!

Thank you very much! But how can I disable the buttons in the first time? And another Problem is that I am using the template in a Sharepoint Library. How can I save the document in the Sharepoint Library when calling save as? Thank you!

Perhaps instead of using the File / Save and File / SaveAs menu options, you could disable those and add your own save / save as buttons. That way you would know what the user is trying to do.

Not sure about jscript, but in C# for IP 2003, for example:

            //save as newfile.xml

            SaveFileDialog saveDialog = new SaveFileDialog();

            saveDialog.FileName = "newfile.xml";

            saveDialog.DefaultExt = ".xml";

            saveDialog.Title = "Save newfile.xml";

            if (saveDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)

            {

                mapping.Save(saveDialog.FileName);

            }

You can look into SaveFileDialog at MSDN

Hello, I am new with Infopath and I am working with Infopath 2003 und Jscript.

1. I want to differentiate between Save and save as. When the user clicks saveas, I want to change some values, but when the user clicks save, I do not want to change the values. How do I differentiate between saveas and save, once I am in the OnSaveRequest()? With Jscript

2. I want to get the name of the form with the Jscript.

Thank you for your help!
