I have an InfoPath form that requires workflow. The form is build from a cXML schema in BizTalk,then dropped into a forms library for workflow. The user opens the infopath form, reviews and picks one of several options: re-submit, archive, escalate, etc. My question is how best to workflow this? Do you have the buttons on the form up...
I need to return contents of an xml column in sql server to client by simply clicking a URL. The xml has processing instruction to open the correct application (Infopath in this case). I'm a bit confused as to all the various xmlreader writers and streams available. I suppose I want to send the contents of SQLs ExecuteXmlReader to Resp...
Hi, I have tried to deploy the infopath form using Sharepoint Central administrator / STSADAM. but it is not deploying, Deployment status is showing "Installing" not even changing after an hour. This problem is happening after the daylight savings, before it had worked. Thanks, Gunasekaran Sambandhan ...
Does anyone have any idea how to deploy an InfoPath Form (2007) as a Site ContentType programatically (script or object model)? I do not want the form published to Central Admin and FormServerTemplates, but rather a Forms Library created by a Web scoped feature. The intention is to be able to publish the form via script or code in orde...
I'm trying to consume the standard SharePoint web service GetWeb in the code-behind of an InfoPath form. The form is hosted as part of a workflow, so loaded inside the browser with Forms Services. It therefore runs on the credentials of the current user logged into SharePoint. The web service runs if the user is in the Owner group of the...
We have an ASP.NET application with an InfoPath forms component, delivering InfoPath forms to the browser using InfoPath Forms Server. Rather than save the forms in SharePoint, we submit the XML form data to a ASP.NET web service, which saves the data as an XML data type in SQL Server 2005. This is working fine, and we have no issues l...
Hello, In my project I am using InfoPath and I store the xml it produces in database (through a WS) - so there is no SharePoint along the way. When I open the InfoPath form the server it always shows this weird message: This form cannot be filled out, either because you do not have adequate permissions, another user has the form open,...
I've got several repeating tables sitting in a InfoPath form. Essentially each one lists a load of strings with checkboxes next to them. When the user clicks submit I want to ensure that at least one checkbox per repeating table has been ticked. I was just in the middle of writing a validating event handler for the table which would set...
Hi, I'm developing a custom control using C# to provide drop down list with auto-complete (type-ahead) functionality. My control is working fine expect that it is taking the values list directly from a WS, my customer want it to take the values from a secondary data-source inside the form. Is there a way for a custom control (.net code...
I'm developing an infopath 2007 web-form and I'd like to be able to hide a checkbox. The control doesn't do this inherently, so does anyone have a good method for hiding them? Thanks. ...
I have a web service that submits InfoPath forms to a workflow. When I submit a form from the browser, Chinese characters entered into text boxes or rich text boxes are passed to the service as question marks. The service exposes two methods: one that takes the form as an XML string and another that takes it as an XML document. The probl...
Is it possible to fill out an infopath form and submit it via a C# console application? If yes, then how? ...
We have an InfoPath 2007 form that has an email submit data connection. This works for all clients that use the form but one. That one client has Office 2007 and if I create a simple XSN that only has one button which submits via an email data connection that works. So, the form works for all clients, but one - and a simple email subm...
I am designing an infopath (Change Request) form: 1)How can i add a text box that automaticaly increments to the next number when a new form is created (adding a new Change Request form to the form library). 2)How do i retrieve information from an existing form to the new form. NOTE: The field is not inside a repeating table. I need t...
I need a forms technology similar to MS InfoPath or Adobe LiveCycle Forms ES in that it has an XML data structure, is compatible with ASP.NET, renders in a browser, and is easily configurable by non technical office worker types. TurboTax Online is a good example of the type of functionality I have in mind. The missing piece that I ha...
Just looking at the requirements of a new project and I wanted to make sure this use case was sound: user fills in InfoPath (2003) form locally on their PC a button within the InfoPath form titled 'submit' brings up a new outlook (2003) email message with the infopath form attached. User presses sends and email is sent to an exchange m...
With the widespread acceptance of SharePoint 2007 at my current client, more and more, there are questions about filling out forms offline that then get synchronized when they are connected back to the network. This seems like exactly what Microsoft built InfoPath for, so here's my (totally untested) thought: We have a library of InfoPa...
I have published a InfoPath form as content type and referenced it in a document library. However when i try to open the InfoPath form from the document library i get the following error message: Requested registry access is not allowed. at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowSecurityException(ExceptionResource resource) at Microsoft.Win32.Re...
I'm looking for tips/tricks for dealing with changes on fields within an InfoPath section. Basically, I'd like to be able to set a dirty flag for a section. I'm using InfoPath 2007 with Forms Services. Currently, my approach would be to add rules to every field within the section to update the dirty flag but that is too painful and me...
I have a VS2008 project - an Office 2007 InfoPath form customization with a little code behind. I've run the publish wizard to create an msi install. It's just going to be used by fellow developers (deployment template) who have all the base components already installed (framework, VSTO runtime). I've read all the security documentati...
