Hi Neil,

To achieve this you would have to write code. There is, however, another way to go about it which is by using Qdabra's qRules. qRules is a common library that handles the top 50 commonly asked for features in InfoPath that require code, including your request. Here's the info on SetSave:

SetSave

SetSave gives the form designer access to a variety of previously code-only save options, such as dynamically allowing save, or setting the save location.

Arguments: All arguments are optional, but the command won’t execute without arguments.

o save: Allow or prevent the Save action (allow | block)

o savemsg: Message to display if Save is blocked (* to clear)

o saveloc: Block Save if location starts with this (* to clear)

o saveas: Allow or prevent the Save As action (allow | block)

o saveasmsg: Message to display if Save As is blocked (* to clear)

o saveasloc: Suggested location in Save As dialog (* to clear)

o saveasfile: Suggested filename in Save As dialog (* to clear)

 Example:

o SetSave /save=block /savemsg=Save is disabled /saveas=allow /saveasloc=C:\ /saveasfile=MyForm.xml

This command provides you three alternatives:

1. Block all

2. Allow all

3. Block only locations that begin with the value of parameter /saveloc

SetSave is NOT browser compatible. When injecting your form, you have to select "client only" to have the necessary code injected in your form by the injector.

Please feel free to try out the free trial at www.Qdabra.com and let us know if you need any help.

Hi there, I am having major issues and I am banging my head against a brick wall. I have been tasked with setting up a InfoPath form in which I have done so with no issues.

This is the part I am having real problems with

I want to save the form to a network fold held on our public drive, Basically I want the user to select the submit button and it to be fired off to a folder on our network

I can see all other options for example email, web services, SharePoint, however nothing as simple as save / submit to network folder

Can anyone help me and save me from an early grave :)

Regards

Neil
