Figured it out, Region turns out to be RegionValue for some reason. Thanks again for your help!

Thank you so much!!!

However, when I tried the REST service, it only returns the Title column.

for e.g

/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/Countries

Only returns data with the title column, if I tried (region is a column with in Countries list)
/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/Countries?$filter=Region eq 'Global'

it will return a HTTP 400 page not found, have you run into similiar issue?

Hello hoang, I have the same issue and started a thread here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepoint2010customization/thread/9c683b78-f742-4746-a658-7f6934e022f2

The first response was that there is no workaround, but then I found a possible solution here: http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/t/21972.aspx

I have not had time to work with the REST service, but the post starter says it worked out for him. The problem he mentions about deselecting items also exists if not connecting with REST, and in my case, it does not bother me.

Regards

I finnaly found out what is causing the postback. I have a multiple value list box, that has a data connection to another sharepoint list. The thing that is causing the postback is the "FILTER" data connection base on another drop down value. If I remove the filter and only have the data connection, then it works fine without postback when editing other text field, but if I change that connection to filter out, then it does the post back...Anyone have any idea or workaround to this filter connection?

Hi Jo-Anne,

yes, the form publish successfully after each changes. I am able to create new item or edit existing item fine without any error. The only annoying part is that it keep doing postback making it very hard to fill out the form.

Hi!

I wonder, when you re-publish the form after changing the post back settings, did it publish successfully?

Sharepoint list form postback on every control

hoang08 — Mon, 06 Aug 2012 23:11:46 GMT

Hi,

I have a Sharepoint List form, when ever I leave focus on any control (textbox, drop down, checkbox...) on the form, it will do a postback (screen flicker). It's very hard to fill out the form because of this issue, every time the user hit tab or click on another control, there's a flicker and about 1 second wait before you able to type in the textbox.

I have try go into the control properties > Browser Forms > Postback settings, and change to Never, but the control still do a postback. Is there some other setting I must do? or this is a limitation to a list form?
