This is very good information. Thanks for posting it.

Hi, We have another guide here for Checking forms In and Out, could you check this blog out? http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/mel_balsamo/archive/2011/05/15/create-an-xtp-to-check-in-and-check-out-forms-using-udc-files.aspx I believe It has a feature that takes the current user (step 4 of section 1) when checking a form out, but I'm not ...

Hi Carphunter, You can do this by holding the CTRL button while selecting the fields to resize. Adjusting by cursor (mouse) or right clicking on the field > properties > size tab > adjust height  or width should both work. Another best practice is by using a custom table found under the Insert tab. This way, your page will look a ...

Hi, For cases like this, I would recommed displaying the fields from the GetUserProfileByName data connection onto the canvas, and add a button to query the data connection. If the GetUserProfileByName data is not populated, then the issue would be the userName() function. However, if it does get populated, then you may need to re-structure the ...

Here's ...

If this works, then it looks like the ...

Hi Tom, Unfortunately, I am unable to determine why switching to another view based on the current user's department isn't working for you. Could you provide me with more details on this? Perhaps attach your form so I could get a clearer idea on what is not working. As for creating a subsite, have you checked if the submit to library ...

Hi, Could you check the field SuspisicousActivityType? This field seems to be required, but it is not displayed on the canvas. Regards,

Hi, It seems like the ALO field is not concatenating the values properly in order for the send email action to work for the selected addresses. If you are using a default value for the ALO field, the formula should be similar to this: concat(EmailField1, "; ", EmailField2, "; ", EmailField3, "; ...
