i'm not sure i understand this.

The name of my view is "2".

so to switch to that view in the onload i can't use the actual name of the view?
How do i refer to the view then?

2 is the name of the view. I have tried changing it to viewb but it doesn't seem to work either

Is "2" the name of your view? You do not reference a view by an index if that is what you are trying to do.

---Directly from help-------------
SwitchView Method
Changes the active view of a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 form to a specified view.

expression.SwitchView(ByVal bstrName As String)
expression Required. An expression that returns a reference to the View object.

bstrName Required String. The name of the view to switch to. If an empty string is used, the default view is displayed.

Security Level
2: Can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.

Remarks

If an empty string is used as the bstrName parameter, the view is changed to the default view of the form.

Example

In the following example, the SwitchView method of the View object is used to change the current view to the default view:

XDocument.View.SwitchView("");

Switch View during OnLoad

Is this possible. I can't seem to get it working. Here is my code:

Sub XDocument_OnLoad(eventObj)

if XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:myFields/my:field9").text = "true" then
XDocument.View.SwitchView("2")
end if

End Sub
