Re: Cycling through a list box for sending emails

Try this code (I think it is a little cleaner than a for loop):

DOMNodeList contactList = contacts.DOM.selectNodes("//YOUR_EMAIL_GROUP");

IMSXMLNode next; // I don't know C# good, but declare a node here (what is the data type?)

while( next = contactList.nextNode() )
{
thisXDocument.UI.Alert( next.selectSingleNode( "my:emailNode" ).text );

}

Hope this helps - sorry if the syntax is a little off, I'm not quite fluent in C#.

Just before lunch, I finally managed how to do this :-)

Hi Agni.

It turns out it is not so easy.
Right now, I have the following code:


DataObject contacts = thisXDocument.DataObjects["Contacts"];
contacts.Query();
DOMNodeList contactList = contacts.DOM.selectNodes("//*");
if ((contactList != null))
{
	for(int i = 0; i< contactList.length; i++)
	{		
		thisXDocument.UI.Alert(contactList.text);
	}

}

I get the right number of pop-ups, but they are all empty.
Why?

For the select statement: How do I know the XML Hirarchy of the data source?

Another thing I can't figure out is why can't I cycle through the list with a "foreach (DOMNode .." Statement? I always get an exception.

Hi Agni.

Wow, I'm impressed about your quick answer :-)

Thanks a lot. I switched to C# because I'm more familiar with it and I also want to create some entries at the share point web parts, which seems to be very easy this way (but I just started).

I will search for cycling through the data source with c#. Thanks :-)

Hi Delu,
Welcome on board!
You dont need a hidden listbox binded to the datasource for this, you can directly loop through the datasource for doing this.

Search for "selectNodes" keyword in the forum you will find lot of posts which specify how to loop through the the reapeating nodes.

Cycling through a list box for sending emails

delu — Thu, 12 Jan 2006 08:27:37 GMT
Hi there!

I'm sorry for this easy question, but I don't know java script and not much about infopath and I'm trying to get a quick solution.

I created an infopath document and I want to send an email to all members of a sharepoint contact list on submission to a sharepoint form library.

I created a "submit" butten and I got the email address from all contact list members into a hidden list box (by creating a new data source).

The final question is know, how do I cycle through the list box and append the items to a ";" seperated string in order to send an email?

Thanks for any help!
