InfoPath Dev

Fixed the issue by changing the Product Description from a text box to a drop-down list box and then disabled this via a rule.

I'm not aware of a way to disable these specific commands.  But if you aren't allowing the user to insert/remove rows, you can just uncheck Allow users to insert and delete rows in the properties.  This will disable the shortcut menu altogether.

Hi there, I think that would depend on how your web service is set up.  Typically the form will automatically close after you submit the form, but you can set up a rule instead for the submit so that the form stays open.  Afterwards you can continue to receive data from your connection.  Hope that makes sense.

Hi there, and thanks for the great comments! Action rules will trigger typically on two types of events: button clicks and field changes.  So if neither of those two things are happening, the rule won't run even if its already in the state where [field] isn't empty.  I'm not exactly sure what your scenario is, but perhaps ...

Hi, and welcome. Here's what I struggled with when I started with InfoPath - rules only execute when the field they are set on changes.

Mark - sorry, didn't see your post at the end of the thread - to my knowlege, you can't edit a SharePoint List form for ShP 2007 in InfoPath. Has to be ShP 2010. Karen - this has to do with the limits of promoted properties on repeating data. By default, IP will promote the first entry. You can change that to "merge" - see ...

Usually an action is performed when a button is pressed or a field has been changed.  If the value of the checkbox isn't changing when you are opening the existing form, then the rule won't run again.

If you added the checkboxes to the secondary data source then I imagine that's why they're greyed out. I think they might be read only or locked controls. I guess I don't understand the scenario. For cascading dropdowns, the user makes a selection in the first dropdown. This triggers a rule or a filter that then populates the second ...

Check the font size settings in Internet Explorer.

The source field would be the field bound to the attachment picker.
