InfoPath Dev

Not supported on SharePoint Online.

Hi Roger, Sorry for the delay. You say "all of a sudden" - is this a regression? Did it work before? If so, what did you change? Make sure that both fields are bound to a field that is in a repeating group and not a single field. If the data is in the form (open in Notepad to confirm), and you are opening the forms via their XML, ...

Not that I am aware of. IPFS shipped standalone in 2007 but that was discontinued last year.

You can do this without code. Take a look at the Meeting Agenda (Detailed) form template available for free from Microsoft's web site (Google: InfoPath form template Meeting Agenda). There should be a 2003 form available. This form also shipped as one of the 2003 out-of-box solutions - I know because my team built those for the launch of 2003. ...

Hi JasonMacKenzie, Good question! I don't really know, but I do know the UDCs must exist in a DCL. We use Data Connection Libraries on SharePoint sites (from DVLs) and have never experienced your problem. You're definitely doing the right thing though in using UDCs - they're a great best practice.

Hi SumumarsB and welcome, You can set up your form to submit to a SharePoint list using qRules - you don't have to write code. We stopped providing code help for this since we added it to qRules, an inexpensive plugin that you can use for all of your forms. Check out the free trial today. Should take you 20 minutes to get it all working. ...

Hi Aadair, This is why we developed our Database Accelerator (DBXL) for InfoPath in 2004. Take a look a the free trial download. It's an inexpensive tool that can help you solve your reporting problem in a very short amount of time.

Have you looked at stsadm.exe or the SharePoint object model? Qdabra Software has a SharePoint / InfoPath accelerator (DBXL) that supports programmatically deploying content types and we can show you a demo of that if you are interested. Best regards,

There used to be a couple third party vendors - UniqueWorld in Australia and a firm in Korea that had tools, but I believe both efforts are mothballed (defunct). If you just need to view the forms, it's easy to do that without Form Services, but to submit them via a browser, SharePoint's Forms Services is the best game in town. 

Hi Rich, Just add rules to both the Booking Date and Timeslot fields that query the database when a value is entered (if the Timeslot and Booking Date are also present, respectively - that's a condition). Add a secondary data connection for this (don't use the main data source if you have a database backed form). Then, the query ...
