InfoPath Dev

Hilary, Once I tried publishing as a form library, my missing field started showing up. I guess this is the workaround - if you normally publish an administrator approved template, if you have any promoted property changes, you should also publish as a form library. Thanks again!

Thanks for your continued help Hilary. I am publishing the form template to a Sharepoint Library (in File/Publish/the second icon in IP 2010). Yes this is an administrator-approved form template (I have never tried the other choices). I specify a shared network location for the form.

In which application can I see the new column ("under the library settings, see the new column in the columns list")? Your reply did not solve my problem, and my main suspicion is that the ...

I took over this project from someone no longer working at our company, and have taught myself a little bit about sharepoint and infopath development. In Infopath 2010, I am trying to promote a property to a form (via File/Form Options/Property Promotion/Add...). That works as expected, and I can publish my form (as I have done successfully ...
