Hi, I have added a "multiple selection list box" control to my form and bound it to an element in a secondary data source (local XML). For some reason, when previewing the form, I am not able to change the state of the checkboxes. Is this a limitation with secondary data sources? Text box controls bound to elements in the ...

Oh, I just noticed that I have been using the wrong HTTP status code for the SOAP fault responses (400 instead of 500). I thought I had fixed that. Now the fault response message is displayed to the user as expected. (Although, I liked the HTML-formatted response messages with the HTTP Webserver method better! :))

Thanks Hilary for your suggestions. Yes, using rules for the submission is exactly what I wanted to do (as it allows me to check some more complex validation rules before submitting), however, here the Submit to HTTP-Webserver option is not available, and if I go for the SOAP submit option instead, then it seems the server response, unlike for the ...

It seems meta data is also stripped from jpeg images when attached to the form using the picture control (understandable). If some key meta data/fingerprint/hash could be preserved, this would be useful for mating the picture with its high-resolution original in a separate workflow.... I guess I have not just overlooked such option in the ...

Thanks Hilary for the suggestion. I managed to create a Receive Connection for the SOAP Web Service. And to use this connection in the Submit Actions. However, I am not clear how I can include the entire XML instance document in the SOAP Request Message (without using code. So far I have managed to stay away from code, and would prefer to keep ...

I realize that downscaling the picture ensures that the form's size stays manageble, as the original picture could be several megabytes large. Wondering if the downscaling algorithm/transformation used by infoPath when importing the picture into the form is described somehwere...

Hi! I am currently experimenting with the Picture Control. It seems to me, when I compare the size of the attached jpeg file with the size of the form instance xml document, that the image size/quality is reduced when attached to the form. Is it possible to have the picture attached without reducing its quality? Thanks for any help!

Good day! I have an InfoPath 2013 Form that is filled out by users in the InfoPath Filler application. The form is submitted to our custom web service via the "Web Server (HTTP)" method in Infopath. In order to leverage the possibility to perform client-side "on-before-submit" validation (i.e. using InfoPath ...

Hi, while testing my new InfoPath form template the other day, I noticed a new ribbon menu I have never seen before in InfoPath Filler, and I am unable to make it appear again (don't know what key combination I pressed to make it appear). Among the buttons in this rare ribbon menu, there was one called "Work offline". Anyone ...
