MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / September 2005How to copy conditional formatting
I've had to create a very long and [fairly] complicated set of parameters for conditional formatting of a repeating section. I now have to do the same parameters but changing different elements formatting. Instead of having to rewrite all the lines is there a way to copy the conditional formatting and stick it in another place to modify? Or I could do (probably even harder though) if table border = yellow then value = X > I've had to create a very long and [fairly] complicated set of parameters for > conditional formatting of a repeating section.

When your conditions get complex, its time to move them to code. The following how-to article on InfoPath Dev explains how to do so: http://www.infopathdev.com/howto/tutorials/default.aspx?i=88f921f13dec4e7cae6119 1bac084fff The article is talking about rules, but it works the same for conditional formatting, except that you don't need to do the manifest modification when working with conditional formatting. Good luck!
