Hi,

I use the form like a normal user (not in design mode)in fill out mode

In my form I make a query in a webservice and after I copy all the result in the primary datasource. my code:

IXMLDOMDocument2 oDomSearchHRG = (IXMLDOMDocument2)thisXDocument.GetDOM("getAV");
oDomSearchHRG.setProperty("SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:xsf=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/solutionDefinition\" xmlns:msxsl=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt\" ,.. ,.. ,,..");
oDomSearchHRG.selectSingleNode("/dfs:myFields/dfs:queryFields/tns:getAV/tns:nr").text= thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/CaseList/Case/@Nr").text;	
thisXDocument.DataObjects["getAV"].Query();
IXMLDOMNode oNode = oDomSearchHRG.selectSingleNode("/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/tns:getAVResponse/tns:getAVResult/CaseList/Case");
IXMLDOMNode Original = thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/CaseList/Case");
Original.parentNode.replaceChild(oNode,Original);

So that complete my form! No probleme here

My probleme is when I do that I can edit empty field return by the webservice !

It's an reapeating section who choice (for example: an adress, a name, or goal (all are choice section)) depends on which title! and if this field are empty you can't edit them you can select it but you can write nothing (like a read-only field)! You can only write in the rich text box and in your control(Smart Combo Box) all other are "read-only"!

Why infopath make this? Have you any idea?

I hope that you understand what I try to explain!

Thanks a lot for all your help!

Every moment hesitated is a moment gone for life!!! Think about it

Ok! I have understand what I do false!

The problem is that Infopath erase all the old data and put the new!
And sometimes depend on the schema requirements he don't send an empty
markup so infopath can't store them so the field is read-only!

Now my question is : Is it possible to make a merge between the old and the new?

If not I think the best way to accomplish that is to make a xsl that transform my new
and add all the field that is not present!

Do you things it's a good idea or have you a better idea?

Thanks for your help

Why not use a secondary data source (2DS) to receive the data and then have a handler that maps the fields into your main data source. You could use an XSL for this, or you could do it manually.

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your answer!

Ok so I have to make an xsl which for each group section see if all element are present.

What I have to make is a query in a database by a webservice and after the user can modify the data and add some new elements for example enter a translation of their name or remove the legal seat to put another change the person name, fonktion, ...

Hi Thierry,
You could just have some code that iterates through the DOMs copying if one is blank etc.
Or, you could display both side-by-side in the view and have the user click a button to map them over.
I still don't feel like I understand exactly what your form is doing. Can you explain? That might
help me.
