Hi -- What is the data type on the field bound to the text box? If you look in the Main Data Source in the Data Source Pane, and right click on the field that is connected to the text box, you'll be able to see the data type.

Hi, Phil: We have a tool for that available for free download here: http://www.infopathdev.com/files/folders/dbxldownload/entry24682.aspx  The user guide is here: http://www.infopathdev.com/files/folders/document_deployer/entry31582.aspx Basically, the DBXL Migration tool will allow you to export everything -- mappings, doc types, even ...

I think you may be running into trouble with the xsi:nil attribute -- When you set the value of your date time field, you'll need to remove that attribute. It throws a schema validation error otherwise. See this article for more info: http://blogs.msdn.com/infopath/archive/2006/11/28/the-xsi-nil-attribute.aspx

I think I'd add a field the Supervisor could use to mark the eval complete. Hide that from the employee -- user roles might work for this. You could have a certain role set to initiator -- since the employee starts the process, you could hide that field from the initiator role.

I published the form. When I opened it and filled it out, the leading zero remained in my text box: Perhaps you should try re-adding your field?

I'm trying to think if there is a way to do this without code, and I can't think of one. At the very least, you'd need code in the Loading Event for Form B (the form opened from the main form) if you are passing in input parameters (http://formlibrary/template.xsn?foo=1&bar=2). And then you'd need to create the ...

Well, I don't know if there were big changes between SP1 & SP2 for InfoPath, but you did mention that you have IP2007 -- did you design the form as being IP 2003 compatible? You can use the design checker to find out. Then you also need to save the template as an IP 2003 template. I don't think those things would cause this error, just ...
