MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / May 2007Submitting InfoPath form - Username format?
I have an InfoPath form that submits to a SharePoint task list. Everything is working great except for submitting data to the built-in "Assigned To" column (or any column containing a username, actually). The problem, I believe, is that I'm not submitting the user information in the correct form. I've tried "DOMAIN\username," "username@domain.com," and "username" without success. In what form should the user information be submitted to the SharePoint task list? Thank you. Have you already tried asking this question in the SharePoint newsgroup? That is, what is the correct format for the AssignedTo field when adding/updating list items to/in a SharePoint Task list using CAML? The problem you have lies with SharePoint and not with InfoPath; InfoPath is just a means to an end. --- S.Y.M. Wong-A-Ton > I have an InfoPath form that submits to a SharePoint task list.

I do not have much time this week or the week thereafter, so please do not expect a prompt reply, but I'll see if I can figure out if there is a way to fill in that AssignedTo field for you. --- S.Y.M.

Don't worry about looking up that information. I fiddled around some more with InfoPath and SharePoint and discovered that usernames must be passed in the exact format "DOMAIN\username". I originally entered the usernames as "DOMAIN\Username", which doesn't work. It appears that correct capitalization is critical. Thanks for your offer of help anyway! > Okay.
