MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / August 2006Save/Submit with Sharepoint
My form has a submit button that will submit the form to a sharepoint list and then close the form. Everything works fine when entering a new form, however - nothing happens when a user is editing an existing form from the sharpoint list. Pressing the submit button does not generate a success or failure message. Users currently have to click 'Save' from the form's menu to save the form back to the list. I'd like to change the form so that if the form is being edited, that the submit button will save the form and then close. I'm having trouble finding a solution to this WITHOUT using custom code. We have some consumers that have severe security restrictions. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Hi Dave, My current understanding of this is such that Submit can submit to either a sharepoint doc library or a web service or as an email or to the hosting environment itself(sharepoint, asp app etc). However, if you choose to submit it back to the hosting environment then something needs to actually know what to do with it when it is submitted. Most likely a SharePoint workflow I would expect (if you are using SharePoint) and then you can copy the form fields into the underlying XML document during the workflow process... However, for your situation I would imagine that you want to make sure that your submit data connection is submitting to the correct place ie: a SharePoint library. I suspect this is all the problem is. If you can give me more details about how you have configured your submit data connection then I can help you further. hope this helps cheers Bruce ps: This is related to 2007 as I have not used 2003. > My form has a submit button that will submit the form to a sharepoint list > and then close the form.
