InfoPath Dev

Hi,  I own a Sharepoint site. But I do not have access to Central Admin of the server. In my site I have a Form Library under which I want to publish an Infopath form. Right now the form is a Smart client and it works just fine. I am in the process of converting the form into a browser based form. The documentation talks about getting into ...

I just tried it in a form, using rules. One option is to change your field from a date to a string but if it is linked to a DB you do not have that option. Setting it to no value with a setfield action works fine. With code you want to use empty.string or an equivalent I found a post that discusses this. ...

Welcome to the forum. Once you have your list you would display it in a repeating table with the state and a check box. Will you allow more than one state choice at a time? A drop down would probably be simpler for the user in that case. If only one then you put a rule on the check box that loads the state name with the filter selected = true ...

HI and welcome to the forum. Data Connections are verified on form open, even if they are not being queried so i think it is difficult to remove this other than coding it completly which would add more complexity and hassle to the form. Have you thought about putting the DB in a network folder, probably already is, but then set it up as a ...

Is it a repeating field? Sharepoint does not have the ability to display relational or repeating data and often we use a Database instead. Checkboxes should have a value for both checked and unchecked but this often needs to be set in the controls if it is not a boolean (true / false) field. Once this value is set in your main data source you ...

I think you would want to set it to Null rather than a space or blank string.
