Hi,

I'd have the same requirements (browser enabled form) but haven't found a solution so far.

Anybody out there who knows if this can be accomplished?

Thanks,

Infact I ve compared both the .xsl files and there are not at all any difference on the button schema.So can you please suggest any tricks to achieve the same.

I ve been desperately looking for some suggestions from your side.Can you please confirm me whether it can be achievable?

I was able to replicate this -- the steps that work to create a button in a form based off a blank template do not seem to work for a template based off a Web Service. I'm not sure why -- have you compared the .xsl files from the blank template sample you tried to the web services sample?

Hi Hilary,

I have been trying to display an image on an Infopath button for a "Webservice based Template", I dont know whether we can achieve the same or not.But I want to confirm the same.

NOTE: It is happening for "Blank Template".

Not that I know of -- sorry -- but I didn't know that it wouldn't work for a web service based form, so that is helpful information to have...

Hi Hilary,

This is really nice to go through these links, infact I am also looking to place an image in an infopath Button.

But the case is slightly different, in my case i am using "Web Service Template" rather the "Blank Template".

I have applied the same changes as the posts are saying for both kind of template, but unfortunately the Web Service template is not displaying the image.

So is there any tricky way to populate image on an Infopath button( for Web service Template)

Can I use a picture as a button to switch a view?

Hi all,

This question is a bit simpler than my normal ones. I was wondering if there is a way to use a picture or picture control to switch views. The buttons that are offered in InfoPath are pretty limited in the cosmetic realm. I have some nice pictures for Help and Email, etc. that I would like to use in the form instead of the normal buttons they offer, but I can't get it to work.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
