InfoPath Dev

another view is certainly an option - i will start looking at that the validation error is just a red dotted box around the attachment location saying that it only supports 64bit binary files you can't do conditional formatting on an attachment field

Hi all, I have an infopath 2007 form with a repeating table where the last column is an attachment column.  After the form gets all it's approvals I need to hide/delete/or make the documents not be able to be opened from the form.  So here are my thoughts - please let me know if you can help me pick the right way...  Have set ...

Thanks Daniel That's sort of what i did - i created the form and set the submit to overwrite.  I have my main forms hidden from the general users, so I just opened a form, filled out something to begin and then submitted it. Now everyone can go in and access that one form from the document library and I don't have to worry about ...

I have created an infopath form that we will use for metrics throughout the year.  I do not want to publish this form to Sharepoint because we will only use the one form for the full year and I don't want anyone accidently starting another one.  What I'd like to do is upload the form to a Sharepoint library and have users be able ...

Thank you.  As you say, I know my environment better than you.  I think using Views is a personal choice and works well for me and my users in the situation of this particular process.  You may have your opinions on this, but so do I.  It's easy enough for me to add the conditional formatting to the fields on the one form ...

You are right, one form, actually 5 different views.  The process and workflow continue past the point I'm describing here, but I didn't want to go further because I just need view 1 to be read only once the first approval has gone thru.  What I don't think we are "jiving" on is the Views.  I am using the ...

I got around the repeating file attachment by deleting it on the read only view.  Then putting the formatting on it. Now, how do i go about telling the workflow that if approval is yes (or no) only open the read only form?

Ok - let me see if I can make this clearer from my end.  First off, I've eliminated the issue of the 2nd form needed to be read only because the approval signature is on that page.  I just set everything up under a section and added the digital signature to the section.  The person that fills out the second form will submit for ...

has there been any update on this issue?

Thanks.  I can't disable the ability to use the views though because the second, third, fourth user down the line has to refer back to the original form.   Is there a way to disable the view if there is an approval.  Perhaps a rule? Then I could just have it come up to the read only version.  I think I'm ...
