InfoPath Dev

Using a web service call worked for me, but you will at least need VSTA (Visual Studio Tools for Applications) in order to run some code behind the form. You should be guided to download it if you click on any code editing button associated to a form' control. Once there you'll need a reference to the "lists" web service on your ...

Background: InfoPath 2003 form published as a list template on a SharePoint (MOSS 2007) form library; I've been asked to show the SharePoint item ID on the form itself. Clearly this would only be applicable when the item ID does exists, i.e. when opening an already submitted form. I've been trying not to use coding, but do not seem to find ...

Unfortunately I'm not that familiar with the IP2007 API, nor with DB-connected forms. Actually I would like to deepen that second subject as I'm starting development on a DB-connected form (though still on IP 2003 filler forms). Specifically I'm wondering if I still need to save the forms' XML, and wether/how the form XML is ...

I guess that's where I'm heading to; it's just that I would have preferred a disabled button... Thanks anyway for your suggestion!

I need to open an http url in the client' browser when user clicks a button; the url is dynamic, so I'm planning to store it somewhere in the datasource, then have the custom code for the button open it. I know I could use a standard hyperlink, but the button would be disabled on certain conditions (the url would fail), while I don't ...

Yap, same thing happening to me, I do have the "New Project" menu item, but no templates installed. I also tried following the route indicated in the system application event log to run vsta /installvstemplates, but that was unsuccessful as well. I'm going to use VS express, that should be enough. So thanks a lot for your suggestion; ...

I have 6 form templates deployed on a Sharepoint form library as site content types (though I guess this information is irrelevant to my question...) All the 6 templates have a big part of code behing which could be re-used, while at the moment I have it duplicated in all of them. Ideally I would build a new project for a dll where to place the ...

I didn't want to design a brand new workflow, since the default Approval was fine for me. The only way I found to manage this was by manually calling the Lists.GetListItems web service method and query for the workflow status column. In case you do that, be aware that the value returned is an integer with the following mapping: 2 = In ...

I want my forms to react to their workflow status; in order to do that, after defining a built-in approval workflow on the library, I created a secondary data connection to retrieve the workflow status, however the status column is not shown on the data connection wizard among available columns for the library. Apparently, Sharepoint itself does ...

I'm looking for a way to dynamically change the submit location of my form template, published on Sharepoint. Basically: I publish the template on Sharepoint as a site content type I then use the site content type into 2 distinct form libraries I would like to submit forms created from FormLibrary A to FormLibraryA, and forms ...
