hi all,

I hope someone can help  / show me where to look.
We have a list (let's say a To-Do list for example), and when someone clicks "New" a form pops up and people enter details, hit save and it gets added to the log.
The person who made the form is away at the moment and we want to modify the form. I'm not sure if it was built on InfoPath, Excel (is that possible), etc.

My question is: how can I find where this form resides and edit it? We need to add some more fields but I've looked around the site (even doing a search for .xsn extensions) and googled away but no luck. I've looked in each document and list library but can't find it. There has to be a way? The drop downs in the form I can modify / add things as they're just in the list, but the form itself - I'm at a loss. I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Thank you in advance.

We've been tasked with a project. The idea is to create some forms, ideally web based, where users can input data that is then stored in our sql server and the form sent on to someone else for approval. (In simple terms).

My idea is to use sql server, SharePoint and InfoPath. Does that seem like a viable solution and does anyone have any prior experience or good material they could share?

I had this question after viewing Extracting text from a lookup field in a SharePoint 2013 workflow.

My issue is that I have three lookups.  They are creating a cascading drop down.  The problem is, to make the Cascading Drop Down work, I have to add the ID of the first list.  So even though the Display on my form does show the Titles the value that is passed is an integer.  Any thoughts on how to capture the text values rather than the underlying ID values?  I am also using an InfoPath form for my form.

-- No responses so I will clarify for simplicity.  
  - Lookup 1 (ID and Title)
  - Lookup 2 (ID, Title, Title from Lookup 1)
  - Lookup 3 (ID, Title and Title from Lookup 2)

This works find for three drop downs on my form.  The issue is when the record is saved, the value (ID Integer) of each lookup is saved rather than the DisplayName.  I'm trying to capture the DisplayName so I can pass it to another list.  I know how to pass the field values, but again, I'm not looking for the ID value, I want to DisplayName value.  I have seen it done with standard forms in SharePoint Designer using Javascript, but I am using Infopath Custom forms. You will see from the image that where EIS Part is the selector.  The field I want to fill is EIS Part A.  Instead of getting the longer text in EIS Part to display in EIS Part A, it shows the ID which is 2.

Hello!

When I am querying the soap service in infopath, I have a crash error. Can someone explain what is happening?

Using InfoPath 2013 with SharePoint Office 360, I want to create an item in a SharePoint list just ahead of creating an item in the SharePoint list for the form being displayed.  I am trying to create a Web services submit connection in InfoPath to do this.  I am uncertain of the url to use in the connection. Here are a few details:

1.  Main data connection is for List 1 in site A.
2.  The form displayed is for data in List A.
3.  When the submit button is pressed, I want to create a new item in List B, then create the item in List A.
4,  When I attempt to set up a submit data connection, I am using https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/<site>/_vti_bin/<service>.asmx?WSDL.  That works when <service> is lists or webs, but then I don't see add item or anything similar.  And even if it did, how would it know which list to add the item to?

I can't readily locate services for Web services, and am still puzzled by not using a list name.  Is this kind of item creation even possible in InfoPath 2013?  (converting to PowerApps but need something right away).

When i am trying to edit the InfoPath form i am getting the error "To use this feature ,you must have an XML editor compatible with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation such as Microsoft Infopath, and you must have Microsoft Internet Exploreer 7.0 or greater"

I am opening this form in IE 11.1 and I have Infopath 2013 installed in my machine.

Edited:
I solved this by using string-length: concat(substring("Yes", 1, (string-length(myFields/LookupColA) > 0) * string-length("Yes")), substring("No", 1, (string-length(myFields/LookupColA) = 0) * string-length("No")))

Original:
I have an InfoPath form on a SharePoint list.  One of the cols in the list is a lookup col. I want to display "Yes" if the list's item is connected to the other list and "No" if it is not.

I used: concat(substring("Yes", 1, (myFields/LookupColA != 0) * string-length("Yes")), substring("No", 1, (myFields/LookupColA = 0) * string-length("No"))). The result is Yes even if no lookup was set for the item. I displayed the value and it is a number if the lookup was set and what appears to be null if not.

What should my formula be to work?

unable to edit an infopath form and publish the same in sharepoint 2007

Greetings,

I am fairly new to Infopath and I am using it to create forms to replace manual office document forms. They will then be published to Sharepoint online.

My current project is a Manager communication form that will require multiple people on it.  
I am using the people picker control to have those fields populated.

Each line in question has a people picker field, Title field, Department Field and a Division field.  (And a spot to initial)

I have the "User Information List" added as a data source. I would like to auto populate the fields after the people picker once the people picker populates.  

I do have Visual Studio installed and set for VB.

Thanks for any help.

I need to build a set of 1 or more InfoPath documents based upon some business criteria going against a related list of recipients of the document.

I have it working using the following function.  Part of the process of building the function is to copy a base (template) XML file down from the document library, turn it into a string with one or more parameters that I insert into that string, and then write the string to content object, upload to the library and then the XML file is available and loads in InfoPath within a browser.

The form has a repeating table which if I populate the form with, the function fails after I take that XML file and use it as the template in my function.

Code follows with abbreviated XML variable as it is too long:

	 function createFile(pParam1, pParam2) {
		var clientContext;
		var oWebsite;
		var oList;
		var fileCreateInfo;
		var fileContent;
		
		var sfileName = "FileNamePrefix_" + pParam1 + "_.xml";
						
		try{
			clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
			oWebsite = clientContext.get_web();
			oList = oWebsite.get_lists().getByTitle("RecType SubType");   
			
			var FoundFile = CheckForDoc(sfileName, false);
			var newTemplate = 
			'\n<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><?mso-infoPathSolution name="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:RecType-Audits:-myXSD-2017-07-01T00-23-25" solutionVersion="1.0.0.502" productVersion="16.0.0.0" PIVersion="1.0.0.0"
