InfoPath Dev

This short article is what I use when I introduce new people to Infopath. I know it says "Advanced Guide", but it really isn't. It has all the basic information you need to get started. https://bmi.cchmc.org/webfm_send/358

Is this a private forum as I wouldn't want to attach my form for everyone/anyone to see.

That makes absolute sense. Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it!!! :-) Have a great day.

So, your supervisor drop down uses the AD_ID for the value - that means the supervisor node will have the AD_ID for it's value - even though the drop down displays the User_Name. The filter then, needs to select the User_Name where the AD_ID in the same secondary data source is equal to the supervisor field in the main data source.

Okay, attaching the template to this reply, and more info to the next. To use the template, you need to save it locally. Then you can right click the saved file, and select Design - this will open the form in design mode. From there, you can save the file locally, preview, etc.

Ernesto,  My data connection has the correct xpath listed for the name token.  The IP form works properly when submitted and creates the correct xml filenames. For example, right now, all of my documents are xxx-xxx-xxxx.xml within my sharepoint library and in dbxl.  If I export them, the exported files are the <docid>.xml ...

Whops..... Here you go.

So.... you attached the XML that the form creates, rather than the form template. Can you attach the form template - the XSN file? :-)  

That is so nice of you. Thank you. I attached the form. To answer your question, yes when the user selects the name of the Supervisor - it is a drop down using the same data source as the list with the user names.
