InfoPath Dev

One of the great things about InfoPath is that it does allow the non-techincal to bridge the gap and create their own forms.  Obviously there is some learning but to me if they can master Excel they can make the jump to InfoPath.  If you are using soley browser based forms then that is additional complexity but even still should be ...

Yes it should close InfoPath. You are using the close form action in a rule or are you trying to use some other method?

Yep that makes sense. Unfortunately I do not believe their is anyway around it. Do you have both query fields and data fields generated in the data source? Probably you would want to look at using code to do a bulk move of the data. I believe Greg has some blogs on this.

Secondary data sources are temporary. They are loaded in to view or to be used in the main schema but the data is not saved with the form.  That is why there is no validation, because they are typically read only.

I am not aware of any ability to change this functionality like you can in Excel. My only would be changing the key mapping or creating a hot key during form completion which mapped the num pad enter to tab.

Hey Hexium. Thanks for the post and information.  I am just starting to delve into browser based forms. As far as the validation popups, can that be controlled in the control properties and postback settings?  Obviously the standard validation could be turned off and you could perform your own validation checks. As far as ...

Hi Alex, welcome to the forum. If you search on "cascading dropdown" you will find some blogs and post for what you need. Essentially you put a filter on the dropdown source referencing the previous dropdown selection.
