Hi Jim Weir,

You are populating some field#%92s values by using rules right. Then you need to have one condition on that rule depends the form is new or old one. This value we can find using onLoad code as below.

var formState = XDocument.IsNew;
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:FormState").text = formState;

In FormState field have the value is from is new or old (True/ False). You can use this field for condition on above rules which ever you populating the data to some fields.

Hello all,

Happy Holidays to you all

Not sure where this topic should go, so I am putting it here for now.

I am not sure if this can be done or not

I would like to know if user is creating a new form or updating an old form. I have published the form to SharePoints 2003 and set the flag to allow overwrite the form which is great and works.

What I would like to do is if the user creates a new form to populate some of the fields for the user, but if they are editing an old form not to populate the fields except for a few others.

Thank you in advance for all your help
