InfoPath Dev

Having wasted a day and a half messing around with code on this, I found out that if I set the Default Value for the field in Tools>Default Values then it works. Could anyone explain the difference between setting the Default Value here, and setting the Default Value in the Data Source taskbar?

Ideally coding in VB and think it would feed off the FetchGUID textbox Changed event, but not sure, and not great at coding. Thanks

Hi, I have a form template based on a webservice. As part of the form load procedure, the form will try and submit a GUID to a database, if it doesn't contain a GUID, i.e. it's a blank form, then the webservice creates a row in the database table and the form populates it's datafields with the data in the new row. However, for this ...

Hi all, I have a form that has several repeating sections. The first repeating section is a client detail section. The other sections all contain a dropdown box that looks up values in the forms data source to populate it's values. I want to be able to concatenate the clients first name and surname when populating this drop-down list if ...

Hi I have a form that has a webservice as it's main datasource.

Each table represents a section of the form that I want to use as a repeating section, so that more than one record can be entered into ...

There are several tables on a database that have been made into a dataset for the webservice to read and populate into the forms datasource. Each table represents a section of the form that ...

I was able to right click on the right node and add a group, from which I was able to create an optional section. Not sure whether this will present any further problems when it comes to submit/receive but will be back again if it does. I have to have them in Optional sections, as there is validation required on the fields and as such, if the ...

Thanks, my thoughts were that it would have to be through a secondary datasource. Any idea what the xml file would look like for an Optional Section?   THanks

Thanks for reading my post. I've created a form that uses a Webservice as it's main datasource. The webservice is connected to a SQL database that contains various tables, each of which represents a different part of the form. There is a client table and the form has the "Client" section that relates to it.  I then have ...
