InfoPath Dev

Here is an article that may help: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/infopath/archive/2007/02/26/passing-data-into-a-form-input-parameters.aspx Alternatively, qRules has a function to easily get an input parameter without writing any custom code: http://www.qdabra.com/en/products/qRules_new.aspx

InfoPath is unfortunately not the best when it comes to printing.  The best advice I can offer is to make sure you have a separate view that is optimized for just printing.  That is a display view or sorts that uses calculated values to display your data instead of text boxes, date pickers, etc.  Size them appropriately to make sure ...

If the field is auto-populated it doesn't need to be read-only... just don't include the field on your form. It still functions corectly in the background (e.g. populating the way you've told it to) but it doesn't need to be read-only if no one can see it. I'll be happy to walk you through an example if you'd like me to, ...

Alright well I've basically created a web service that should send the data from InfoPath to the database, I have deployed the web service (took a while to figure out) but I can now access it from my web browser. Basically my web service has a URL like this http://server.name/_vti_bin/InfoPathWebService.asmx. Now I've gone into my ...

Hello, I'm trying to open another from a form, e.g. click on a link on one form and it opens another form in a model dialog and pass data to the second form. I have read that JavaScript can not be used in the code for the form, so must be something in C#? I keeping reading reference to SP.UI.modeldialog, but can't find any working ...

Hi.I have a form that contains repeating section. And inside this section is a textbox1 to which when a user enter a value,  textbox2 will be populated based on the calculated value in the textbox1 changed event. Is it possible to know to which repeating section (for example the 2nd repeating section) or  textbox (instance of ...

I am experience this same issue. Does anyone have a solution or reason for why this is happening. Please let me know. Thank you.

Not sure if this will help, but here is a video tutorial on how cascading dropdowns work in InfoPath: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SH7xUEcQwwg So is your problem that the field type cannot be promoted?  Repeating fields can only be promoted as first, last or merge.  There isn't an option to promote them individually.

Don't think there is an easy to do this without writing code or cracking open the xsn.  Have you considered creating your own asterisk outside of the control?  You can have a red asterisk in a calculated value control show/hide using rules that figure out whether there is at least one entry in the repeating section.  Maybe that ...

There may be an activex control out there somewhere that does this, but otherwise I'm not aware of one. Definitely not a way out of the box. You may consider using webparts though.  There is the InfoPath Form web part and the Visio web part which you can make talk to each other using part to part connections.  Perhaps something to ...
