Rejoyce, what do you mean when you say you drag "it" over to the form.  What are you dragging?  The way you wrote this, it seems as if you're dragging the Contact Selector control itself over to the form canvas, but if you're doing this, then I don't understand why you would expect to get prompted with ...

Sergio, did we figure this out on MSDN?  I can't remember...

Your 2007 browser forms will work right out of the box in 2010 unless they include custom code.  However, since you have a lot of custom code, I can't say for sure.  I do all of my forms without code, and there is no discrepancy from 2007 to 2010.  I have also built some 2010 browser forms with Qdabra qRules code that I was able ...

So what you need to do is type in a search term and then query your data source for items related to the search term.  If you want to do this, then it depends on what your data source is.  You didn't give us any of that information. Where is the data that you want to query?  What sort of data connection have you created for ...

Just set the data connection to automatically retrieve.  That should have been set by default.

no, of course not. you cant publish a 2010 form to 2007 at all. you can build 2007 forms in 2010, but it removes the new 2010 capabilities to ensure compatibility. browser form restrictions are on the forms services side, not the infopath side. so, the new browser form features are not related to what you can do in ip2010. they have ...

You just need to shift your logic.  You don't open forms to specific views on command, but rather you add rules to the Form Load logic to tell the form which view it should switch to based off some known information that can be compared.  If you must pass a value with the button, then it may have to be a URL query parameter that sets ...

Do you truly require a pop-up?  Is it not sufficient to use a hidden section that shows up on the form with your message upon submission of the form?

Every item in a SharePoint list or library is assigned an auto-incrementing unique ID by default.  Are you saying you need a completely separate unique ID that you create by yourself?  What does it need to look like?  Is there a reason you can't use the built-in unique ID?  Answer those questions, and I should be able to ...

I think the problem is you are expecting the form to open in the view where it was submitted, but that's not how InfoPath works.  InfoPath always opens to the default view unless you add a Form Load rule that tells it otherwise.  Switching the view before submission does not "set" the view.  You need to go to Tools ...
