InfoPath Dev

In the Library's -> Advanced Settings tab is it set to open in the browser by default?

Try removing the form from your user's cache. On your user's machine, close all InfoPath forms. Go to Windows Start and launch InfoPath Filler (or InfoPath for 2007). Find the form template and click remove. Close InfoPath. Now try to reopen your form.

I can think of at least two things: a) the name "c\" is not correct and doesn't resolve to a good file location, and b) you need to make sure your form's security setting is set to full trust to use this.

There is no timer event that will go back and check so the workflow must run based on some action (i.e. save or submit). I suppose you could create a workflow that iterates through the forms and checks the ones with status "Not Notified" and looks at their date fields. That sounds custom though or like something that requires a third ...

Formatting rules should be view-dependent. In other words, adding a formatting rule to one view should not affect it on another view. Another idea would be to add the controls to a section and set a formatting rule on that.

You can control the workflow by ...

Hi Adam, You can definitely have separate Web service calls in one form. For SQL, the best practice is to not have a direct connection, but rather to use a Submit connection to a Web service. This may require redoing your form and writing a Web service or installing a generic one, like Qdabra's DBXL (an inexpensive option). We do this kind ...

Normally, if your submit fails for whatever reason, it won't run the next action. Do you have the close as a separate rule or a separate action? Is the order submit and then close (not close and submit)? If everything is correct, I recommend removing the close and see if there's an error. Check the saved data by opening in notepad and ...

I responded to the other thread with one idea.

Understood. In SQL Management Studio, in table design mode, I believe you can select two fields (rows) and right click to make primary. For specific implementation questions, we'd be happy to provide an hour of paid support. You may need an hour or two of an expert's time to work out the details. If interested, just go to ...
