InfoPath Dev

You should be able to right click and select Remove - can you try that?

Makes sense - I just usually start with questioning things like that. :) I think InfoPath may not be the right solution here since you need to be able to all work on the same data at the same time.

Hi - InfoPath doesn't have anything that I know of that would allow multiple users to work on the same XML at the same time. I don't know of a way to export an InfoPath form to Excel or Word, I'm afraid. Why do multiple users need to be able to change the same data at the same time?

So - your form has code in it? If it does not, you can just save as a different format to move it to IP 2010. If you don't know if it has code, I can help you find out. :)

I think relinking the forms may do this - that will update the modified by and modified date tho. I know for some people that is a BIG DEAL and for others it is not. You can go to the relink view and relink just one to see if it populates the data.... I believe this can also be done in PowerShell without changing the modified info - but ...

Content types do not publish directly to the form library - the published XSNs are stored in their own library.

Hi - this is a great scenario for using content types. You can set the form library to use content types. Publish the form as a content type, set the library to default to that. You can relink the forms as needed from the relink view, if you have an existing library that you need to change over. Then, when you make a template change, ...

I guess if I was creating a user list for use in a form, I'd just have a column for the display name and a column for the account ID - not a column with a person or group data type (Rep in your suggestion above). Although I guess with using a people picker, you know the account is valid? If you do use a people picker in your "Rep" ...

The point of concatenating with "-1" is because we may not know the SharePoint ID number for the account. For example, I could give you access to my site, but you won't have an ID # until you've actually visited it. So the "-1" means "go look it up you lazy server" (I'm paraphrasing here) - does that make ...

I have seen some really fun-tastic behavior with people pickers in the browser when we set them via rules / code. I think it has to do with post back behavior, I'm not sure. May I suggest a work around? Just display the display name as a calculated value. Add a button the user can push if they wish to edit it and when they click the button, ...
