Hi,
I've seen information on the newsgroup before about assigning a unique
file name each time a person fills out an InfoPath form and submits it.
That's what we did for our client who only required that the date be
appended to the form name when the form was submitted.
Now the client would like to have sequential numbering of the forms, so
that when they are submitted, they are saved to the library like Form1,
Form2, Form3, Form4, etc.
Do you have any recommendations on how to approach that?
Thanks,
William

Hi William
What I did last year was build a simple Web Service which looked up a
SQL database and returned the next available sequence number from a
table. I then simply used that. You can use Web Services with InfoPath
by simply adding a new 'Data Connection' and use the 'Receive Data'
option. This is one option you could think of doing, obvisously there
are a number of different ways!

Thanks, Greg. I'll try that approach.
