Hi Jo-Anne Thanks very much for replying. The Category and Sub-Category drop downs are working ok. Not sure exactly what I did but I think in the Control Properties of Sub-Category I looked for data from an external source. I have tried doing this again and applying rules to the Contacts field but neither works when I add a filter. Karen

Hi Kazzahere, When creating cascading dropdowns, you'd need to add a filter to the sub categories dropdown with a condition: where "Category" (ShP list secondary data source) is equal to "Category" (main data source). Is that what you're doing?

Hello, I'm writing this in VB. It runs when the second date changes, pulls InnerXML from each of the dates, runs it through a function I found on here that calculates the number of work days in a given range then multiplies it by 7.5 (because we're working with hours). If you'd like to see the actual code I can attach that.

Hi all I have followed the very useful information on here regarding auto-populating a field based on options selected from a drop-down menu which returns the first entry held in an SP list but when I add a filter no result is shown (I thought I was doing so well for a moment). I have a drop-down list for Category, when an option is ...

Hi Catharine, Are there any errors in the Qdabra or Application logs? I imagine there is a possibility that DBXL is failing to map using Web Service. With Object Model (and Publish Library and XSN checked) we have another way of mapping the form from DBXL to SharePoint. However, sounds like this may be failing in your environment.

I have InfoPath 2010, Sharepoint 2007 and DBXL 2.3. I have a form which has been in use for >1 year.  There is a SharePoint mapping allowing data to be promoted to a Form Library.  The users do not edit the documents in the form library, they are purely used to trigger alerts.  I have added new fields to the form in the last few ...

Hy, Is there anyway to obtain primary data source file path (in my case, an xml file) ? example : my file : c:\test\testFile.xml I want to get to file path inside a variable in my vbscript. Regards    

Unfortunately, there isn't a completely codeless way to do this. However, qRules provides functionality to do this (and a lot more) and can save you from having to write any of your own code.

I have a newform that has a dropdown field named "Status" and need to have the value of status field change automatically when i click on the save/submit button that the newform originally has on top of the form(ribbon was it?), not a created button. Does Infopath has a PreSaveAction() function like that of Sharepoint? How can one set ...

 Yes, you can do this. For a browser-enabled form you will need to create a webservice to be the middle man between the InfoPath form and the database. I'm not sure if I asked you this before - but do you have any programming experience? I used the following to teach myself how to create a webservice for my InfoPath ...
