 Hello Hilary so sorry for answering back so late. I tried the postback and that didn't work. I was in the middle of trying your new button suggestion and I noticed I forgot to mention something and I think it has something to do with it. Basically my form has a blank text field where the user puts in their login ID. The button in ...

Hello, I have a fairly simple form. I have three data connections and a button that queries them and fills out some text fields. Problem is I have to click the button twice for it to do anything. First time I press the form kind of wobbles and only when I hit it a second time will it execute. Is there something I'm not doing? Having to double ...

  I got it! I'm positive you have a more elegant solution in mind but just as an FYI for anyone else I basically broke up that link into two text controls made it the default value for each and for the username there's a third username value I already had. I simply concatenated all three and got my exact result. As always ...

 OK thank you that's a great tip. And one that I see can totally work. I can figure out how to use that in a workflow but I'm a little unclear with a calculated field. I chose that or even looked at the Picture control. Not sure how to properly plug in the URL which would be ...

 Specifically I have a field where I enter a user account name, hit a button that queries a data connection that pulls department, title, etc. Is there a way to pull the image that's on everyone's MySite page in SharePoint? We're using SP 2013 FYI. Thanks in advance.

Yes that did it. Thanks as always Hilary you're the best.

Hello, I'm trying to write a date field into a text field. I'm using the following expression msxsl:format-date(Archive Date, "mm-dd-yyyy") as the default value in my text field and a rule to run on the date field that writes to the text one. It works when I preview it in Infopath but when I try to publish it I get an error that ...

Hi all I have what I hope to be a simple question. I'm using Nintex to do an XML query and pulling the filtered data into a collection. I'm placing that collection into a rich text box in an Infopath form. the data comes out but unfortunately it's coming out side to side and word wrapped. I would really love it if it would be single ...

Anyone have any ideas? I don't have the data loading on form so that it can load. But I put a button to run the query on the database which of course triggers the error. I tried putting a filter on the dropdown but that doesn't work either. Is there any way I can filter the query from Infopath before it hits the XML file?

OK so my issue from what I've researched is a common issue. I have a form that I've made a data connection to an XML file pulling 3 columns of data. Unfortunately there's over 253,000 rows and the actual file itself is about 14 megs. So I'm getting the "The amount of data that was returned by a data connection has exceeded the ...
