InfoPath Dev

Versioning is currently set to: "automatically update exsisting forms" does this mean that the schema error could be caused by something else?

It is in the form options - If InfoPath 2007, under Tools > Form Options. If IP 2010, under the File Tab - Info - Form Options. Then select Versioning. I do want to warn you however - what changes did you make to the form's data source? Did you just add new nodes? You didn't delete or move nodes? Because if you deleted or moved nodes, ...

Yes it has been changed, I was given the job back in June to update it and the whole process has been a mess ever since due to not having training in doing so. Is this "update exsisting XML's" option just a button I check during the publishing process or if it is something that if it was never done prior it is too late?

Hi - did your template recently change? If the template was changed, and not set to update existing XML, you may get schema errors.

Also, can you drag the z:row node from you ...

Hi Everyone, It's my first time here so I appologize if this particular issue has been mentioned already. I have created an infopath form for my work and am trying to populate it automatically using officeaccess database that I originally converted from Excel file. I have followed some of the examples that were mentioned in the forum but ...

Well, I think you could probably highlight the row in the form library based on some conditional formatting (using SharePoint Designer, most likely, I'm not sure what's available in the UI). But you'd still need to promote the column so that you had the value to base the conditional formatting ont....

Thanks again!  I'll switch my form to your method and spell the name of my field correctly this time.

Ah, sorry, I didn't notice that part.  It's puzzling that that works when your original attempt (just having the field set itself) didn't, since one would think they would produce the same result.  Just another one of InfoPath's quirks.  I suggest using the approach I described because it's guaranteed to present ...
