The TTU ID is a significant number; the TTU ID is a 6 digit number that identifies a computer in the College of Engineering. Every computer has a unique TTU ID. Due to the fact that each computer has a different TTU ID each form will have a different value in the TTU ID field. I created a form in which I had entered a 5 digit TTU ID instead ...

 I looked through my form to make the suggested modifications to the form settings and rules. I am already using the "Save As" field at the SharePoint Library Data Connection. I do not understand as to what I need to do to set up the "TTU ID" as the form name. I guess I am a little confused because if I create a action ...

 donstephen,  I have tried your suggestion and I am still coming across the same problem. I have the "Submit/Send E-mail" button assigned to a rule which states that the "Save As" field will be populated with the value entered in the "TTU ID" field when the button is clicked. Once that rule goes through, ...

 donstephen,  I actually created a "Save As" field and when I click the "Submit/Send E-mail" button the "Save As" field is populated with the value in the "TTU ID" field. Will the "Save As" field suffice for a field that generates a unique ID for the form name? Is this what you had in ...

 Hi donstephen,  I followed your suggestion and made the necessary changes. I saved a test form in the Form Library and then went in and made a few changes in the test form. After the changes were made I hit the submit button. This created a new form name instead of making changes to the existing form. Do you have any thoughts on ...

 Hi donstephen,  Is there a setting that will prevent a new form from being created when editing an existing one in the SharePoint form library? All I would like for the user to be able to do is after they edit an existing form a new form the changes will be saved to the same form. I do not want a new form to be created each time an ...

 Hi donstephen, The above explanation helped me a great deal. Thank you! If I would like to be able to search forms that have been submitted to the SharePoint Library how would I go about setting that up? The forms would need to be searchable by either of these 3 fields: TTU ID, Dell Service Tag, Date that the form was submitted on, and ...

Hi donstephen, I was able to fix the problem and now my .xsn file is opening successfully in both SharePoint 2010 and 2013. Now that I have done this I have worked on the form some more and tried opening it in the browser. This is not yet possible because the form now opens up in InfoPath Form Filler 2013. I have researched on some online forums ...

 I will give this a try this afternoon and I will let you know how it fared out.  Thanks!

 Hi donstephen, Thank you for the help with InfoPath. Besides my online research that I perform for getting through my first InfoPath form, your advice and aid has been invaluable. I have crossed another problem though which has me worried. I upgraded from InfoPath 2010 to InfoPath Filler 2013 and InfoPath Designer 2013 and now whenever I ...
