InfoPath Dev

Hi Curious, You will have to run the MSI or the JS script again to install the form into InfoPath's register.  I guess this was wiped out with your hard drive.

Hi rs200, For this scenario you will undoubtably have to write some strange code.  I have never done this, so I can't tell you exactly, but you should do all of your data exchange between your business logic and the thread you want to run using straight C# objects and datatypes - don't try to access any of the implicit InfoPath ...

Hi abdelghafour, Don't work about the size  being different - we unpack and repack XSNs all the time, and I guess Microsoft is just using an old version of the cab compression when they make their XSNs, we always notice the size difference, too. I'm not sure about your other problem tho.  Does the XSN that you create open in ...

Hi dreadz, What do you mean that you can remove all of the fields in the repeating section?  Do you mean that you can remove all instances of the repeating section so that there are no rows in the "table" ? To prevent this, you can add custom data validation on the repeating section that fires when number of rows = 0.  To do ...

Hi happydigit, As for your second question, you do not need to write code to insert a repeating section on the second view, since these two sections are mapped one-to-one.  Instead, simply add the three fields to the repeating section that you already have, but do not display them on the first view.  On the second view, drop another ...

Hi RLPopeIII, I don't have much experience with Option groups, but if you want to insert/remove XML nodes on the drop-down event, the only way I can think of doing this would be by using code.  Just put an OnAfterChange event handler on the drop-down, and then when it fires check the value, and then insert/remove XML as ...

Hi erinselena,  Why are you using a tempfield, why don't you just hide all Assets where IsSelected = false.  This seems like it would be pretty easy - how exactly are you hiding the sections? You said a rule, but did you mean to say conditional formatting or filtering?  Filtering is prefered, since InfoPath never even retrieves ...

It sounds like you've already checked this, but the quickest way to see what value is being returned is to place a text box in the view in place of the option buttons. But, what I'm guessing is that because you have varchar(2) in the database, that the WS is returning "Yx" where 'x' is some other unseen character (like a ...

After installing AD Web service I tried to test its configuration and got the following error.    Had a secondary question regarding excluded paths.  I could not find the settings page for excluded path on SPS 3.0  That step was NOT done during install.   Any help would be appreciated. Windows 2003 Ent.  SP1 - ...

I have a SQL Server database with a table that has a field, discussedOutside, which is of type varchar(2).   I also have a web service that accesses that table, and in that service the class that defines the data to be returned to InfoPath has a field, discussedOutside, which has a type of string.  Finally, my InfoPath form ...
