My first guess would be that the data type in your InfoPath form or SharePoint library are text or string fields which Excel doesn't like to filter on very easily. Have you tried changing the data type in SharePoint and or InfoPath to see if that helps? 

Hi Michael, Since they are using a browser enabled form the only way to get the InfoPath data into SQL is to use a web service. You could write your own web service or you could look at our product called "DBXL" which is a generic web service that will get the InfoPath data into SQL very quickly and without writing any code.  I am ...

Have you read this forum post with some guidance on ways to troubleshoot this issue? http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/p/540/2234.aspx#2234 Hope that helps, there are issues that cause the flickering and some ways to reduce it. Ted

That is a very big form, with 150 views and 3.5 MB I am not surprised it is taking some time to open, even without a lot of on load data connections - the fact is that the form is probably rending a lot of stuff which is what is taking time. You might want to look at adding "expand/collapse" sections to show/hide data and by default ...

Hi, What version of InfoPath and SharePoint are you using?  2007 or 2010? InfoPath does support a great feature called "User Roles" which might be easier to use to manage what you want to do. (see this article: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath-help/about-specifying-user-roles-for-forms-HP001106605.aspx) Managing this in ...

Hi, You can do this using user roles in InfoPath without code.

I have an infopath form and sharepoint workflow that don't seem to be working well together.  My workflow is set to send two separate emails based on field values in my infopath form.  The first workflow condition is to check for a negative and send to the manager, the second workflow condition is to check for a positive and skip the ...

Hi Patrick. Thanks for the welcome. I haven't been able to do much, as I'm just the site owner and don't have access to error logs or other admin features. What I can tell you is that the library's default view only takes a few seconds to load, and nothing (e.g. workflow) happens on form submit. Also, I just heard from our tech ...

Hey everybody, I just started using Infopath 2 weeks ago. I am having trouble with one part of my form I am creating. What I want it to do is when you enter a users name into field1 it finds the name on a sharepoint list and the "Access" they have attatched to it. I already have SP linked up and grabbing the user and ...

Hi all, Like many people, I've discovered the built-in surveys in Sharepoint / MOSS 2007 aren't that great. So I'm thinking of using Infopath 2007 w/ Form Services to build a survey. However I'm trying to figure out a way to restrict users to submitting only 1 entry. I also need to allow users to modify his existing entry. Is ...
