InfoPath Dev

This may be more complex than it apears but... If you just need the name of the current view, to display in the form for that view, I just usually type it in somewhere as a header. You could also set a field or expression box with the name. If you wanted a field that always contained the current view, you would need to set this with the name of ...

Are you actually going to save the form or is it just used to save the data. For SQL Data forms I usually do not save the form as an indivdual copy but just use it to update the live data. I use the method Greg suggests and have a flag field that updates after the submit. If you use the default submit functionality of InfoPath you can have ...

This can be a common issue. I usually create some fields that I use as flags to keep track of the form state. So I add an update to a flag field when I save the form and then do a conditional check in the open rules and if the form is updated switch the views accordingly. There may be another field that is filled in or updated on a saved form ...

I have a lot of things built into the form but I can't image that this is normal. Any suggestions on improving performance is ...

I've read through the article but still having issues. I'm not sure how to apply the code. I don't want to set a default view with the code. I want the view that the user saved the form in to open when the form is opened again. I have 6 different views and forms can be saved in any of those 6 views. What do I put in the part of the code that ...

When I first started with InfoPath I left the default programming language set to JS. Now I want to change it to VB. I know to go to the Tools menu->Advanced Tab->Form Code Language. However now in my current form I want to change to the code language to VB. (There is no code in the form currently) yet the Form Code Language is greyed ...
