I developed an InfoPath form that directly connects to Access database and
allow user multiple submit as email message. One problem I met is that one
email receiver’s conditions are 14. However, the limits of the conditions is
10 in InfoPath 2003. I tried to use “contains” to shorten the conditions
within 10 limits, for example if @Department contains “CAO” or “Fire” or
“Transportation and Works” or “…” or “…” , but it doesn’t work. It does not
work for this pattern: “CAO Fire” as well. Contains can only contain one word
such as “CAO”.

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Weisen

Hi,

Have you looked into xdExtension to handle large and complex set of
conditions by code?

Thanks Franck,
I do not know xdExtension. I searched The InfoPath Developer's Reference.
There is a property, Extension that is applied to XDoc object. The following
is the example from the Reference.

Example

In the following example, the Extension property of the XDocument object
is used to access a custom function:

objXDocument = window.external.XDocument;
objXDocument.Extension.MyCustomFunction();

Would u mind giviing me more sugguestions?

Thanks again for your help.

Greg is showing there a trick on how to implement xdExtension for Rules, for
conditional formatting, you don't need to modify the manifest.xsf.

Hope that it helps.
