InfoPath Dev

I really appreciate your help. I hate that this particular situation seems so complicated. Part of the issue is how to summarize the list and infopath info concisely. I apologize for not just uploading the stuff initially. I had hoped that it was a common issue that others had solved years ago and that I as a newbie was running into for the first ...

never mind that last post on the now(). Someone here just pointed out that the field name on the now rule was not the same as the rules on the text field I was working on. They are named too similar, unfortunately. It was a start date field and it indeed does have that out of the box rule. Sigh - monday morning, and I don't drink coffee. ...

I am looking over all the settings this morning, and have a question about something odd. As far as I know, I have one rule in all of this app so far. The rule inspector shows this: Validation Proposed x0020 LAP x0020 Code: "Rule 1" conditions Proposed x0020 LAP x0020 Code != "" and contains(Proposed x0020 LAP x0020 ...

Oh - you also asked about sponsering department's lookup. Sorry - just noticed when your message was redisplayed. Sponsoring department is a single selection dropdown on the department name column of my department numbers and names list. This lookup not only has department name column but also includes the department number column. In this ...

It has: Department Number - single line of text Cost Code - single line of text LAP Code - single line of text Department Number Cost Code and LAP Code - a calculated column that glues together the other 3 columns ...

You asked what the settings were on the two source lists. I am not certain to what settings you are interested. Just to make certain that I have updated this thread appropriately - I have tried a variety of suggestions from various sources, trying to get a cascaded filtered dropdown to work from an infopathified custom sharepoint list. From ...

So one helpful soul suggested that I attach the infopath form here so that they could see where things are at. So I just did. I don't know how much use it will be to anyone though. Here are the columns for the sharepoint list for which that infopath is intended. Column (click to edit) Type Required Activity Name Single line of ...

I was able to get properly functioning lookup controls by moving to InfoPath. I would love to find educational resources (blogs, forums, videos, tutorials, etc.) on InfoPath SharePoint integration. I keep on trying. My concern about my stumbling is that I don't know how well I will be able to figure out what I have done, and I know that ...

I have no idea why it was doing that, but after fiddling with properties and xml path settings for a day or two, it appears to have started to work. It is frustrating to not understand infopath and sharepoint lists well enough to be able to think in this technology

I am trying to create a custom form for a SharePoint 2010 list to be used to request charge codes. The user of the list fills in several fields, presses save, and a workflow task email is sent to a group to review the details and determine whether or not the request will be accepted. The user specifies a department for whom a charge code is ...
