Thanks for the reply :D

It's because my form is doing cascading drop down list. And the form must do in web enabled browser. So, I bind the connection 1 by 1 to do it.

Do you have code sample to connect to data connections? If using code, can it be read if I deploy to Sharepoint?

Why do you have 300 data connections? That sounds like a broken design. You should try to consolidate your external data into less connections.

You can write code to connect to data connections and the data connections can be hardcoded in the form so that UDCX files don't have to be downloaded first.

Hi,

Is there any other data connection for Infopath, beside udcx connection? Because I can't use udcx data connection as it is too heavy to load 300 connections in 1 form.

Thanks :)
