However, this only works with InfoPath 2007 :) I usually look at the data source task pane to construct XPaths - don't forget those namespaces!

Hi Joel

Ther is an other way. Open up the template in design mode. Then right click the field you want and choose "Copy XPath".

Hope it helps...

Hi again Joel,

Finding of XPath of the field you could open the template.xml and you can prepare of your xpath from root node with the separation of slash "/".

Check out this link you can get the more information,

I thought my:JobName was the XPath. If not, is there a way to find it?

Hi Joel Allen Welcome to the Forums,

You need to give the field XPath should be correct. Can you check once again XPath of the your field.

Hello,

I have this code where I am trying to retrieve the field value from my form and I am getting an error. Do you see anything wrong with it? I am new to java script, so please bear with me!

var JobName = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("my:JobName").text;

The error says object required.
