Tips about Infopath – Part 1

Tips about Infopath 2007

 Here are the few tips on Infopath 2007, which most of the might already aware of. This is just of beginers.

Tip 1: "Unknown error while publishing"

        Sometimes when you try publishing a form you get a Unknown error. And you do all kind of research, still end up without getting a solution. This error most likely to come when you try change a name of a node in datasource which is referenced in one or more conditional formatting.

 Actually i dont have solution for that, it would be better if we always take a backup of working copy, before modifying

Tip 2: Adding new nodes to data sources which is already published

 -> When we add nodes to data sources to a form which is already published, then we need to make a setting change while designing so that all the existing forms will be updated with the new nodes

         -> In the form options -> under versioning select the option "Automatically upgrade existing forms"
