The saved .xml file form is neither trusted, nor untrusted. It is simply a data file. The form template (.xsn, or .xsf) is what is trusted. When a .xml form file is opened, it launches in the .xsn form template. This should work fine.

All that works fine, when I publish as well as when I preview. I come in this morning and everything works fine AS LONG AS I don't make ANY changes of ANY kind to the form in design view. ...

I am using two drop down list boxes with sources from a secondary data source. From the second dropdown box, I wish to populate 11 other fields. I am using rules to make this happen. I can enter up to 4 rules and it appears to work fine. When I put in the fifth rule nothing appears in the field associated with the rule. Is there a limit to the ...

BUT i cant get the rest of the information to populate. When i do a quesry with the dropdown or text box it returns a pop-up box telling me there is no file and that ...

Ok i now have a trusted form, and the form is saving to a basic location with a static name. I.E. ''c:/form2.xml''. My issue now is that when the user comes back to edit/finish the form , it has an issue with being Trusted again. How can i pass the information to the ''Saved'' form so it has the same trusted properties?
