InfoPath Dev

i have setup a SOAP web service to auto populate some of the field in my form, but one of the fields I would like to auto populate is based on a Person/Group Picker.  The only rule I am able to apply is format but I need to apply an action, is there anyway of doing this?   What I want to happen: the originator select a person ...

I was just having the exact same problem and couldn't seem to find any solutions online...  No guarantee that my problem is identical to your own, but I figured mine out. My drop down wouldn't seem to update even though the version numbers looked good. For me, it was human error. I had two views that looked almost *completely* ...

For whoever may face the same issue, here is how I solved it: We'll get the data from the list: 1.

I am dealing with the same this and you resolution work perfectly for our internal staff, but we have clients that will need to access this information, will this solution work for them?  We may have to get a Microsoft Authenticated Coding Signature for other reason, would that also resolve the trust issues?

Hi Cris,  I am experiencing the same problem right now. Did you manage to  fix this issue ? I have been browsing the web, but no concrete asnwer was found  Regards, S.

However,  it fails when user changes drop down. where in drop down, i am executing Change REST URL action to repopulate new values in ...
