InfoPath Dev

No, I don't think that a content type will address this. The limitation is in the InfoPath connection wizard. You have to provide a full URL. Notice how there's no option to use a formula, or a field from the form, etc. It's an absolute path URL. Sorry, I can't think of a workaround or solution.

Could I get around this by publishing the form as a content type? (something I've never done before so would have to research)

Database forms are bound (locked) to the database, which is why you've been having issues adding a field. If you look at the form's schema, you'll probably see a little lock next to each node and group.

This is a browser enabled Infopath form, I want to disable or delete the value from the drop down list or list box after user selects the value. Any idea or suggestions how can I do this? Thanks.

Thanks, does the entire URL have to be provided? If I'm understanding correctly then it would appear to be impossible to ever save a site as a template (which is what I ultimately want to do) that contains an infopath forms library?

Could you elaborate on what browser rendering problems you are experiencing?  The XPath function string-length() would be the ideal way to check a string's length.

I have tried to follow the answer, but, I am getting nothing to happen as far as selecting the text box is concerned (there is no error box or anything, but it also doesn't select the text box or do anything I can perceive) other than switch view  It is because the View Switched event is not triggering somehow I think  I tried ...
