Infopath XML List

Daminapala — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 05:48:39 +0000

What if I have multiple data to be connected to a single category e.g. Category = “Family” and Data = ”Father”, “Mother”, ”Brother” and ”Sister”? *Note – I am using xml file.

When I pull out the category, “Family”, I want to either reflect the first data only or just one of them or to reflect them all in four rows.

What control should I use and how do I construct the link?

Currently, what I can only do is link it one to one. Meaning, whatever category I have can only be linked to one data and I can link it to current row, meaning my category has to have a different name before it goes to another row of data.

e.g.

Family 1 – Father

Family 2 – Mother

Family 3 = Brother

[strong]What I need is:[/strong]

Family – Father

Family – Mother

Family – Brother

When I click on family, I want to be able to reflect all the data

InfoPath cannot connect to data source

Hi all,
I have an InfoPath form in SharePoint 2007 that has dataconnections to SQL server DBs. I have a group of users that have been using them for the past few months with no problem. The permissions on the site have not changed but users can no longer access the Data connections. They get a “failed connection to data source” error popup with “work offline”, “try to connect” and “show details”. When I click on Show details it says the DC cannot access the query, “Access Denied”. After going around a few times I reset the Internet options back to defaults. this worked for 1 person but not all. They all have the same AD groups, and SharePoint rights.
I have a test user in SharePoint that has no rights and is a member of 1 group besides “Domain Users” I granted this user the same rights to the data connection library and the Forms library. He can open the form and the data conections work fine. The users that cannot access the DC are in the same groups as the test user, the SharePoint permissions are the same, some of the real users have more rights than the test users. The data connections are useing a SQL user to connect to the Databases. I can log in as the SQL user and read the tables the connectors read. If the issue was the SQL user no other user would be able to access either. these user have the same issue with data connectors that use integrated security.
This is really driving me crazy, any and all help is greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Joe

How do I assign a SP column’s value from a field on an InfoPath form?

Lschulte — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 19:25:36 +0000

I have an InfoPath form published to our SP 2010 site. Once a new document has been submitted it saves the form in a ‘pending’ library where it waits for a workflow to be assigned.

I would like the title column in this pending library to automatically generate by pulling ‘name’ information from the forms being submitted. What is the easiest way to accomplish this?
