InfoPath Dev

Thank you for the reply!!  I guess I forgot to mention that I am running InfoPath 2007 in the 2003 object model.    I am unaware of an OpenFileFromPackage function in 2003 OM.   Is there such a beast?  Thanks again!

I have a web service function in a secondary data source that returns no rows of data, but I want to add a row to the data source result set programmatically using the structure that InfoPath sees when it queries the WSDL.  It would be easy if it returned a row, but since nothing comes back, I have no data to reference.  ...

I have found similar postings to people having this problem, but never did I find a solution. It seems that with VS2008, if you create a 2007 InfoPath project, remove the code, and try to use C# (2003 Compatible) object model, it creates 6 compiler errors.   Complaining that it cannot find type or namespace 'VisualStudio' nor ...

Well it was worth a try!    And I do *greatly* appreciate you taking the time to chime in!  

I am using pure InfoPath native application (rich client) to access a web service as a data source.   There is no sharepoint involved. From all of the research I have been doing, the client application is responsible for passing credentials to the web service.   I am building a windows form application to confirm this, ...

I am trying to connect an InfoPath 2007 form to a web service that requires integrated login.   If I run the InfoPath form from the server, I can connect to the data source.  But, if I go to another machine on the domain it doesn't work. From what I can tell, it appears that InfoPath is not passing client credentials to the web ...

Well, I found that by adding a query tag in the manifest.xsf it will make it think that there is a primary data source.    However, once you use the convert tool it changes the namespace and all the objects get unbound.   Effectivley requiring me to re-build the form again. I am working on trying to update the namespaces ...

Thanks for the suggestion.   Unfortunately since it was created as a blank form, the convert main data source does not give me the option to select a web service.   That said, however, if I can trick the form into thinking that it was originally created with a web service, then perhaps I can use the convert main data ...

Ok, I screwed up.   I went and built an InfoPath form using a number of web services and it has a tremendous amount of formatting and rules and views.   I forgot that I was going to require a repeating table with "insert item" until I nearly finished it when it dawned on me.   In other words, I ...

Well, the way around it is to enable the "Data Validation" button! It seems as though secondary data sources are being used in ways that the developers did not originally expect, but I don't see why it would be such a big issue to make that available.   It sure would save me lots of time. Anyway, I appreciate your ...
