InfoPath Dev

Hi Paul, I think you are going to need to use full blown InfoPath and a forms library to do this.  When you customize a SharePoint list using InfoPath you do not get to use all of the InfoPath features, just a subset that SharePoint lists support, a repeating structure is not one of them. Additionally, to create new entries in a SharePoint ...

Are you using qRules? FilterOwssvr is a qRules command... Can you add the Error node from your QdabraRules data source onto your form, and check to see if you get any information returned there when you run the command? Also, try a simple command like GenerateGuid, and verify a Guid is returned to the results node, so you can ensure qRules is ...

Hi, I can't figure out how to change the padding either, it looks to be built in and not user changeable thorugh the UI - although there may be a way to do this outside of infopath (editing the source files, but that can break your form is you are not careful). To change the background color go to the "General" tab of the ...

I want to set up a cascading dropdown using FilterOwssvr.  I am unclear as to how I pass the value selected in the first dropdown to use as a filter in the second dropdown. In the second dropdown field I am using the rule: concat("FilterOwssvr /dsname=GetEquipDesc /filter=LinkTitle /value =", EquipType)  Where the filter ...

 I'll be curious about any known fix for this as well.  The lock-up happens before the status bar appears (which, of course, indicates that the data is downloading from SP).  If I hard-stop InfoPath though (force quit), and click the same link again, the data and form open normally.  Really annoying and puzzling.

Hi, You do not need InfoPath installed on the server.  DBXL does not require it.  You will be able to open the DBXL Admin Tool (DAT) from your client machine, the template is stored on the server but you open it locally to work with it.  The error you are getting is not related to not having InfoPath installed on that machine. You ...

Hi -- thanks for updating, and sorry I missed your original post. So you know for next time, if you create a new thread, we are more likely to see it. Also, did you notice the "Errors" node in the QdabraRules data source? That can help with trouble shooting -- it will return any errors.

Just wanted to follow-up that I was able to find the issue. In going through the demo, I had set the id field to be an Integer. Turns out, that was the problem. Setting the id to be a text field solved the problem. Now the id number populates within the form and when information is changed and the form is re-submitted, it is updated in SharePoint ...

I tried the trial out on my workstation and everything installed swimmingly, loved the product, and we're purchasing DBXL.  Now we're trying to install it on our servers so that we can start using it in production.  But, I am a little confused by the language in your installation guide.  To me, a client is a desktop ...

Hi, I am new to InfoPath and have been tasked with creating a form for our marketing team to use.  I created a form that is emailed to different people for approval once a requestor fills out the form, signs, and sends.  The form is set up so that each signer (approver) has his/her own section.  If he/she approves, they sign ...
