In versions prior to 2010, IP gave a "cannot open form" message when I did this - made me crazy. At least this message gives us a hint. :)

Does this happen only in preview? Or also if you open the form as if to fill it out? When I get this error, it is usually in preview and because I have set the form to use an XML file for data in preview for testing. Go to Form Options --> Preview and see if there is a file path for previewing with data.

This is kind of all but still couldn't find an answer that helps.
I had very simple form and it's been working fine. I just changed some binding and modified rules. Nothing else, I don't use any files or code, just a couple of Sharepoint lists as data connections.
Why did I suddenly start getting this error? It doesn't shows what file, Microsoft could be more specific...and btw, I tried to clear Infopath cache.
