"Close the form" is one of the standard actions in the Rules box and is even available for browser forms. You really don't see it anywhere when clicking "add action"? I use the Close action in every form I make right after the submit so that it closes cleanly without any Save prompts.

Yes, that is not a function in IP2003. Also, it's userName() (in IP2007). Instead of typing things out manually, it's best to choose the function in the wizard so that you don't make any syntax mistakes at least until you master it.

Can you explain how this works with IP2003? The User Profile Service requires the username as the query parameter, so how can you use it to get the username if you don't already know the username? The way it works in IP2007 is that you configure the form to automatically send the current user's username to the web service upon ...

Right. What I've prescribed would do the trick for you, but instead of two separate buttons, you could put all the rules behind one custom submit button (no code). The actions in the rule would be like this:
Set a field's value. Field = Filename (text data element); Value = concat(fields1,fields)
Submit using a ...

Hmm, well I know you can publish to a network path, so I figured you could submit to one. What do people do who have it published to a network path and don't have a back-end database nor SharePoint to submit the form to? I only ever use InfoPath as a direct integration with SharePoint, so I'm not sure which step is involved to ...

No, the first rule is the submit for a form that has already been submitted once. You need to make sure it uses the same exact filename from the original submit, and it can only run that rule when the form has been submitted at least once, which is only possible when the filename field is NOT blank. That's the point of setting the ...

I do all my forms and workflows without code, so I can't tell you how to do it in VB, but what I can tell you is that if you are using browser-enabled forms, then the URL string that Forms Server provides when opening a form has an embedded URL at the end that tells the browser where to go upon closing the form. It defaults to the view ...

You don't change the button settings. You just change the label from "button" to "save" and then add rules by clicking the rules button. Don't change it to a submit-type button. This is where you put the rules to create the filename and do the submitting to data connections.

Gayle, do you get the error code with max when doing the very first form in the library (or with no other forms currently in the library), or does it give you the error with forms already in there? I ask that, because if there isn't a form in the library, then there are no ID#s to reference with the max function.
Count and max are ...

Make a second "save" button next to your "submit" button on the form (not the built-in save/submit buttons on the toolbar, but rather custom buttons on the form). The Save button will just be a plain button that you rename and that has rules behind it.
Behind the Save button, add rules (no code)
Create a ...
