Hi, You got me confused... I am not sure what you called 1st and 2nd options, but nothing I wrote involved writing code. What I tried to suggest is a way to write a new record in another "remote" list, by opening a new "remote" form and passing data to it. Then the new form has to only to be saved with this data. I guess ...

Hi, The problem is very basic, abdyou can easily recreate it. 1. Create a list called "Members" with two fields  - "Name" & "Age". 2. Create another list called "Change History" with identical fields. 3. Create a record - {"John" "23"} in the "Members" ...

Hi, I have been struggling with the same problem. I browsed the web and asked questions in this forums. The only answer I got is relying on a repeating table (http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/matt/archive/2006/02/02/Add-SharePoint-List-Items-with-InfoPath.aspx is one good source for this type of solution). It is working nicely (in ...

Well, not exactly... There is no repeating table in the Source form, just fields. I used a repeating table with CAML because that was the only example I found on the web... It worked fine, but this is not what I need. I need to create a new Target item and populate its fields with values from the fields in the Source form. Any ...

I want to open a new item in ...

Hi, I have successfully followed some recipes for submitting data from a form into a list (e.g. the vintage http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/matt/archive/2006/02/02/Add-SharePoint-List-Items-with-InfoPath.aspx). This involves using the "UpdateListItems method" and a CAML template. BUT... These recipes rely on a repeating table ...

Thx.  The original field was a multi-line field, plain text. The calculated value box (in another form which imports the original field) is formatted as "Text" and I do not see a way to do define it any differently. Following your advice, I changed the original field to rich text. Now, in the other form the text I am getting is ...

I am pulling data from a multiple-line field of another list into a caculated value display. It works but the line breaks are lost. Is there a way to force it to retain the line breaks? YK

Here is a simplified scenario to demonstrate this problem. I created Sharepoint list "Suppliers" with 2 text line fields - "Supplier Name" "Contact" I populated it with two records: {"Supp1", "John Doe"}, {Supp2", "Jack Ripper") I created Sharepoint ...

This solves it. Thanks!
