InfoPath Dev

Hi Hollis and welcome to our forum! I doubt the manifest could help here because. My guess is that InfoPath does not parse references to the form's fields (xpath lookups on the DOM) when it parses the printSettings element.

Leave the Condition as ''None'' (always applies). Add an Action to Set a Field's Value. Click the field chooser and select the field that you want to change when this one ...

Yes, rules work well. Sorry, I should have mentioned that too. :)` Patrick Halstead [InfoPath MVP] InfoPathDev

We have a free evaluation version of Database Accelerator and you can do this kind of query using XPath indexing (as opposed to code). Patrick Halstead ...

Hi again, 1) OnAfterChange is good. You can filter in the OnAfterChange event handler for insert or update or delete. 2) So just filter out remove. There's an example in the SDK and in Chapter 2 of our book. Patrick Halstead [InfoPath MVP] InfoPathDev
