 One more quick question... Manager just asked me to sum up all of the totalCost stuff but I can't add expression box values since they do not store. Am I correct about this? Sorry to bother you again!

I had the trial version of qRules 2.2 working perfectly, in a fairly complex form with lots of views and electronic signatures.  Now, the project has "bloomed".  Here's what I want: Original goal: one form to ultimately be a finished Minutes file, with electronic signatures.  The discussion items are each recorded ...

 Yes! It works beautifully! After all this effort and I just needed an expression box?!  Thank you so much for all your help -- this just saved me from the wrath of the higher ups. (AND you did responded promptly) -- I am forever grateful! :)

Right click the file and save locally. Right click the saved file to open in design mode. Then you'll be able to re-save. IP forms don't much care for being moved about. :)

 It is not necessary to have this information on the Sharepoint site -- this will be manipulated as an offline form for administrative purposes. Thanks for the heads up!   I'm trying to open your file but I think it has to be published by you before I can open it?

This might work for us.  I would like to test it. There is an added complication - isn't there always. File are added by the initiator.  Depending on values in the form other people (approvers) are given access (DBXL + contidional formatting).  (This is a complex formula/process with 250+ permutations). If the files are ...

I don't think your data structure is workable. The field you want to calcuate the total cost in is in your main data source. Your other data is in your secondary data source. Even though you have made the field repeating, InfoPath won't automatically insert enough instances of the field to have one for each line item. Remember, your ...

 As an update, I got permission from my boss to give out the form. Obviously you can't access the Sharepoint information but at least you can see the way the data is laid out and stored.      Looking to update: TotalCost field in myFields/Calc/TotalCost                     ...

Hmmm. It would help me help you with qRules if I knew what you had tried. :) As I mentioned, you'll need to copy the source list into your main data source -- using CopyTable if the schemas match or the work around I linked to in my first post if they do not. After you have your secondary data in your main data source, then you'll be able ...

Hi Zappke, Because of the complexity of your question, I recommend a live meeting to walk through your form and demonstrate the technique. the other option would be to have you attach your XSN to the forum and we could look at it. If you'd like to do this, check out Qdabra's Support page. We provide an InfoPath 9-1-1 service and we could ...
