InfoPath Dev

Hi, and welcome! This post has details on the double eval formula that can create a semi-colon delimited list of email addresses. The formula is written for a repeating field -- if you are using a field in a repeating group, the formula changes slightly -- the post has a link to another blog post that will help you with that. If you have trouble, ...

You can find the low down on browser form compatible controls here. I'd probably use radio (option) buttons myself -- shows all the choices, makes it obvious at a glance what the other available choices are...

Hi, Ian: I can tell you are very frustrated. Can you type in (or supply a screenshot of) the exact message in the final window of the main data connection window, where the checkbox to enable submit is?
