We are trying to help out with a Sharepoint/InfoPath project that someone is working on. &nbsp;We've been asked to help out with code behind buttons for instance. &nbsp;We are using Visual Studido 2012 and coding in Visual Basic. &nbsp;Normally we've always coded WinForm applications so this is new for us. &nbsp;When in the code for a button, nothing seems to work like it does for us in a WinForm button. &nbsp;For instance I can't access say any of the option buttons on the InfoPath form or anything for that matter. &nbsp;Say I wanted to change a check box to be checked for instance. &nbsp;In VB I'd just say checkbox.checked = true or if I wanted to disable I'd say checkbox.enabled = false. &nbsp;I can't seem to do any of that in Visual Basic for the InfoPath forms. &nbsp;I'm wondering if there is just something simple I am missing since this is new for us. &nbsp;Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br />

Microsoft Sharepoint is a software platform and family of software products used for collaboration and web publishing combined.

Microsoft InfoPath is a software application for designing, distributing, filling and submitting electronic forms containing structured data. The product features a WYSIWYG form designer in which the various controls (e.g. textbox, radio button, checkbox) are bound to data, represented separately as a hierarchical tree view of folders and data fields. All the data stored in InfoPath forms are stored in an XML format. Secondary data sources can be built into the form or they can be accessed through an external data connection to SharePoint or a Web service.
