 Is there a way to iterate through a sharepoint list column WITHOUT code in Infopath 2010, specifically IFS. My basic task is to loop through the status column in a child list and populate the status field on the parent with the status of the child.    Example..... 1 parent record, 3 child records. If one or more of the child ...

So after reading about Query fields in your response I did some research and testing and figured out how to achieve the desired result I wanted, so Thank you for inadvertently giving me another option.

 Hi,   I've successfully created a cascading dropdown field that imports filtered data from another SharePoint list.

I get the error: "The form contains XML that cannot be parsed:Reference to undefined entity 'ndash'." I can't get some entities ...

 Thanks Jimmy,   After getting your answer I researched the xdXDocument:Get-DOM method/function to get a better understanding of it. I just want to get this straight, I drop this expression into a formatting rule in the field I want to enable or disable according to the xml document? I added this expression to a field and changed the ...

Hi, I'm trying to bypass InfoPaths standard user role option due to the fact that it's a first come, first serve basis when dealing with one user in multiple roles. I want to use an xml document to provide the list of names and roles they are in. See the following.... <roles>     <role = ...

 Hi All,   I'm trying to run a bunch of tasks through vb code entirely instead of using rules because of the way infopath 2007 operates (rules first/ code second). It's was going fairly well until I try to submit through VB code.  Below is the code I used that is giving me an error (Copied ...
