A shame that there is no codeless solution to do something that seems as straightforward as retrieving formatted text to go into a rich text box. Oh well...
Thanks for the explanation Hilary.

Okay - there is nothing you can do to prevent them from saving with validation errors, other than asking them nicely. You may want to try setting up a new test form in a test library to see if you can figure out the issue you were having with submit so you can disable Save and force them to submit.

Unfortunately a browser form with code either needs to go in the Sandbox (which means you have to be a site collection admin and publish directly to the library) or be admin approved (which means it is uploaded to central admin. I don't know of a way to do what you want to do without code, however.

Its no problem, I greatly appreciate the help. They are saving the form because for some reason the submit button I set up never worked. I had you take a look at it on another thread and we couldn't figure out why the submit button wasn't working so I removed it.

UPDATE - I am now able to add the code, but it turns out I need admin rights to the site collection in order to upload my form. Not sure if I'll be able to get those and how fast. Is there an non-code solution? Not that I mind doing it in code, but I get stuck on permissions... Thank you

I'm trying to pull formatted text from a SharePoint list (Office 365) and display it in a rich text box on my form, with it's original formatting. So far all formatting keeps getting lost in the process. I understand it can be done with code behind. I tried this, but because I don't have SharePoint installed locally this is proving to ...

Not a stupid question at all - the snippet of logs you posted said "For more information, turn off customErrors in the server's .config file." From what Jim said, I'm guessing that is the web.config for the SharePoint server? Is this a farm or a single server?

So - sorry to pester you with questions - are they saving the form? Or do you have a submit button that they use? InfoPath will let you save a form with validation errors - it usually tells you about the errors tho and verifies you REALLY want to save. But it won't let you submit with errors. Is save enabled for the form template?

Yes it is q rules - That's great - a clear direction !
Thank you - wonderful as always

Yes, they can see it. But they get no error and are able to save it this way.
