InfoPath Dev

 So - if your column in SharePoint is a date time (don't be fooled by the option to display the data as a date only - the stored data is still date time), you'll generally see the data returned in the yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss format. However, it looks like you are seeing something else, as you say your dropdown shows a different format. I ...

 Okay, I published as a browser form - no issue. So maybe try saving your form as source files and manually modifying the image's attributes?

 Just when I think I have seen all the various oddball InfoPath errors, someone finds a new one. But I was able to modify my test picture's size in the view file. I'm going to try to publish and see what happens. :)

 Maybe try using the client components?

 I'm guessing this is a SharePoint List form? If so, and this is a lookup type in your list, you need to make sure you use the ID for the value in the drop down - that is what SharePoint expects. Is the rule on the lkpLookup field? What is the comparison you are trying to create? You'll probably need to use a formula to return the ...

 I'm guessing your code may have gotten cut off when you posted - can you try again, and maybe use IE for posting? Other browsers seem to cause formatting problems in posts. I generally use a foreach loop to go through repeating nodes - code samples can be found here.

 Sure - Qdabra, the company I work for and that supports this forum, has a number of support options available. You can find out more (including a link to our contact form) here.

Sure - https://qdabra.sharepoint.com/sites/Hilary/TEST%20IP/Forms/template.xsn?&OpenIn=client&noredirect=true&idTest=1212 is what I used, and first I get the bottom bar in the browser asking if I wish to Save. I do, the bottom bar in the browser shows an Open button. I click open and I can see a dialog (briefly, you know how sneaky IP ...

OK - I can't repro this. I published a form w/ code that returns the count of input params to a field in the form - and I open it in client, passing in input params - and I get a count back. When I try to open with a link I get prompted to save first, but I can see in a dialog when I open that my parameters are included.

This can be done if you pass input parameters to the next form - you could have a link on form A that includes input parameters in the URL and the user clicks that to open form B with the passed in data. You'll need code in form B that gets the data from the input parameter.
