Re: MailEnvelope / populating Subject with form data

in relation to this - I was wondering if there is a way to make the subject field on the MailEnvelope Read only.

I have my users submitting the forms however I would like them to stop amended the Subject field on the emails. (sorry if its a simple answer but I am not well adept at coding)

Thanks nukkumatti.

I tried the approach you suggested but I couldn't get it to work. It's very possible that it's because I am not knowledgable enough with coding. I also tried several other approaches that I read online on various sites, and I couldn't get any of them to work either. However, I found an approach in the InfoPath 2003 SDK documentation that seemed to work great. Using the Source property, I was able to populate the Subject field of the e-mail message with node values from my form.

I also tried to understand the purpose of each line, and after testing the code I was able to eliminate several lines.

function CreateMailEnvelope::OnClick(eventObj)
{
var oEnvelope = Application.ActiveWindow.MailEnvelope;
oEnvelope.To = "DL name or e-mail address A; DL name or e-mail address B";
oEnvelope.CC = "DL name or e-mail address C";
oEnvelope.Visible = true;
oEnvelope.Subject = eventObj.Source.selectSingleNode("//my:ForReview").text + eventObj.Source.selectSingleNode("//my:DocumentTitle").text;

var objView;
objView = XDocument.Mail;
XDocument.View.SwitchView("mail");
}

Question. Are FORREVIEW and DocumentTitle the names of your controls within your Infopath form ?

If yes then in code you have to use something like this:

IXMLDOMNode myForReview = XDocument.Dom.SelectSingleNode("my:myFields/my:FORREVIEW")

and then in your subject you can use myForReview.text

MailEnvelope / populating Subject with form data

I am using MailEnvelope to embed an InfoPath form into an e-mail message. (There are people outside my network who need access to the form.)

When the mail form opens, I want to automatically populate the Subject with two fields from the InfoPath form. Is this possible?

Here's my current code:

function CTRL44_5::OnClick(eventObj)
{
createEmail();
}
function createEmail()
{
var xmlContributors = XDocument.DOM.selectNodes("my:template");
var xmlContributor;
var rgRecipients = new Array();
while (xmlContributor = xmlContributors.nextNode()
)
rgRecipients.push(getNodeValue(xmlContributor.selectSingleNode("my:To")));
try
{
var oEnvelope = XDocument.View.Window.MailEnvelope;
oEnvelope.To = "ablinn@omtool.com";
//This is where I need help. The titles of the two form fields are listed below. (In my form, they're both text boxes.) When I try running anything with the name of a field, I get an "undefined" error. I'm not a coder by trade so please err on the side of extra detail.
oEnvelope.Subject = FORREVIEW.text + DocumentTitle.text;
oEnvelope.Visible = true;
}
catch (ex)
{
XDocument.UI.Alert(ex.description);
}
}
