Set a rule on the field that is bound to the drop down. That rule should set the field that is bound to the multi-select to blank when the field that is bound to the drop down changes. As mentioned in my post above - that will leave you with additional blank fields in your multi-select - and I'm not sure how to handle for that w/out using code ...

Hilary, thank you so much - you really made that easy. I cant thank you enough. Not to puch my luck but any ideas about the second query? Can i restrict the amount of repeating sections? We can only send 25 files at a time, therefore i dont want people to be able to select the insert option more than this Thanks

No worries. the first thing to do is Publish the form to your SharePoint space. In InforPath go to: File>Publish>SharePoint server, and follow the wizard. The location of your SharePoint InfoPath Form Service is just the URL of your SharePoint site. Once the form is published to SP you can also add a data connection in InfoPath to this ...

InfoPath doesn't have a Form Closed rule action.  Your best bet is to disable the default save functionality, and add your own button that carries out the save/submit functionality, does any other rules you want to execute, and then closes the form when necessary.

Hi, and welcome to the forum! If you are using InfoPath in conjunction with SharePoint you can setup email alerts on the SharePoint list. Brows to the list>Library Tools>Alert me. You are also able to add a distribution list to the Alerts.

I have published a browser enabled InfoPath 2010 form to SharePoint and have setup a bunch of rules, but I can't seem to find a way to set these rules to run when the from is saved, not when the form opens. Is there a way to set the rules to run when the form is saved\closed?

Thanks a lot Hilary.  from your message "dropdown to set that field to blank when it changes", is this dropdown you are refering is first dropdown? I tried this by writing a rule on change action of first/initial dropdown and i gave left blank for the field of multi-select. Which didnt work. I guess i did mistake ...

Patrick, we wouldn't want the complication of having them add a pin and wet signature (atleast in our current scenario). Does the e-sig verify identity against who is logged onto the computer domain or whoever is logged onto the Sharepoint site? Since SharePoint allow a user to log into the site other than the person logged into the ...
