Thanks Jimmy and Vishal,

I'm able to fix the issue, by setting full trust and signing the form.

Thanks again for helping me to solve these issues by giving correct guidance

Dear Damith

please check if your infopath form is set to full trust mode.

The template's trust level must be set to full trust in order to access files on the local filesystem.

I'm able to replace DOM of infopath form using XML file as below, this is working fine in debug mode, however when open the infopath file it prompt error message.

[InfoPathEventHandler(MatchPath="CTRL2_5", EventType=InfoPathEventType.OnClick)]

public void CTRL2_5_OnClick(DocActionEvent e)

{

// Create a System.Xml XmlDocument and load an XML file.

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();

doc.Load("C:\\Form1.xml");

// Create an MSXML DOM object.

IXMLDOMDocument2 newDoc = (IXMLDOMDocument2)thisXDocument.CreateDOM();

// Load the DOM with the XML from the System.XML object.

newDoc.loadXML(doc.DocumentElement.OuterXml);

newDoc.setProperty("SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:my=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2010-02-16T10:55:20\"");

IXMLDOMNode newNode = newDoc.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields");IXMLDOMNode rootNode = thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields");

//replace it with the new root node

rootNode.parentNode.replaceChild(newNode, rootNode);

}

This is the error message prompt when click on the button:

Why this is only working in debug mode? how to avoid this error?

Dear Dmith,

You can make form library as secondary data connection and then u can use secondary data connection to populate the infopath form, by conditional formatting you can make a check if the xml value in dropdown exists,and if it does populate the form with data in xml form.Let me know if your functionality is achieved..

thanks Vishal for quick response, i have InfoPath form with set of input text boxes and drop downs, in same form there is a button called save, which used to save InfoPath form as XML file. in top of that form user can select previously saved InfoPath XML files in a drop down and load the XML parameters to the form by clicking on load button. i have problems with loading previous XML files and bind it to InfoPath form, what is the correct way to load XML back to InfoPath Form? changing form DOM XML or any other way? please help me. thanks

Hi Damith

could you be more specific in terms of your requirement, i mean if you want to open saved instance of an infopath form, you already have a save option in infopath forms,using which the form gets saved with a unique id to a form library and you can open or edit it later.If there is something else that you want,please explain..
