Hi guys,

I would have a couple of questions regarding MS Infopath.

1) Could I add a sequential number to the name of the form? If so, how can I
do that?

2) After getting the form via e-mail, if I open it up and click on the
‘Submit’ button again, another e-mail is sent to me. Is it possible to
disable the button after it has been submitted one time? If so, how can I do
that?

3) When the form opens up for the user to fill out, the top tool bar shows
‘Form 1’ as the title of the form. Is it possible to change that from ‘Form
1’ to whatever the form’s name is?

Answer to your first question:

Create a sequential number programmatically. Create a hidden text field in
your form and populate it with the sequential number. You can use the
concat() function to concatenate the form name with the sequential number
read from the hidden field, in the form's submit connection (create a data
connection to submit the form). To create the sequential number generator you
can use a text file to store the number, you can use an xml file, you can use
a sharepoint list, you can use a database, etc.
