I added some new fields (including new people picker fields) and I submitted and uploaded the form on the SharePoint. Now I cannot use the Person/Group picker on Internet Explorer. I do not receive any error, it simply doesn't appear the menu for people picker - I have a blank fields instead of people picker menu. I tested the list on other PC's (with IE8, IE9 and IE10) and it is the same issue. The people picker feature is not working on internet explorer since I modified the form.<br /><br />I want to mention that this people picker was functional before editing the form and also that the preview from Microsoft InfoPath is functional. I don't know if this info is relevant but on the form I have 4 people picker fields and previously I had only one field.<br /><br />On the other hand, in Mozilla and in Google Chrome the Person/Group picker works fine.<br /><br />I use Internet Explorer 8 and SharePoint2010. Also, I don't have access on SharePoint Designer and I have to make all the changes directly from SharePoint.<br /><br />Please let me know what I should do in order to have this people picker functional in Internet Explorer 8 again.<br /><br />Thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-18164480622919228522014-01-24T11:11:27.351-05:002014-01-24T11:11:27.351-05:00Hi, this is a great post !

And I would like to display the ID value at form opening, of course...<br /><br />My other option is to open the form without any ID, and asking the user to save the form in order to get its ID. Which I am probably going to do, but I just wanted to ask, in case there is any way to call lists.asmx from a non-valid or a not-yet-valid form... :)<br /><br />Many thanks and best regards !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-82000890544684557412014-01-10T13:22:03.162-05:002014-01-10T13:22:03.162-05:00Hi Amol, I totally agree!

If you could help me some more that would be so great. What I am trying to do is to update the item instead. Fields in my infopath form (which have default values are: EmployeeIPN, and H Key(concatenated field of 2 values). The corresponding list has 3 values of Employee IPN, Key and Updated. By default the Updated field in the list is set to Y. What I need is when the user submits the form, the corresponding item (EmployeeIPN=IPN and H Key=Key) is selected from the list and has the Updated value set to No. For background info, a workflow then runs, updates a different list and then resets the Updated field value back to Y. When the next form is submitted, the updated value is set by Infopath to N, and around and around we go. Please can you help me?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-58019256488509809952013-10-10T06:51:39.245-04:002013-10-10T06:51:39.245-04:00Hi Amol,

So we don't have a list item as initial context.<br />We already set up some custom web services (Sitrion), just added another one which creates list entries using SharePoint Client Script. It seemed for us to be the easiest solution in this case - now this datasource can also be called as datarequest (without form submit) within rules which is also required. <br />Thank you a lot, <br />RobertRobertnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-20525923808939223772013-10-09T12:16:42.652-04:002013-10-09T12:16:42.652-04:00Thank you for your kind words :)Thank you for your kind words :)Anmolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10142507373363600908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-71366429775411788512013-10-08T21:45:49.174-04:002013-10-08T21:45:49.174-04:00Great woгk!

Create a new, blank browser-compatible form template<br /><br /> - Launch InfoPath<br /><br /> - Click Design a Form Template<br /><br /> - Choose Blank and enable the option: "Enable browser-compatible features only"<br /><br />2. You add data connections to an InfoPath Form Template by selecting Data Connections from the Tools menu and clicking Add. There you can choose whether the connection type is Submit or Receive<br /><br />3. This is going to be challenging as I am assuming the "public" site is going to allow Anonymous Access. If so, then SharePoint security is designed to *not* allow any submissions to a library or list with Anonymous access enabled. As such, this process will change as the data will need to be submitted to a custom web service that you create to take the XML and create the list item for you.Anmolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10142507373363600908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8589886646638874667.post-50533261113077309612013-09-13T12:51:23.912-04:002013-09-13T12:51:23.912-04:00- If you have renamed the "Title" field ...- If you have renamed the "Title" field to be your own name, the CAML query will still need to reference that field as "Title."<br /><br />- Check the Application Event log and see if there are any errors or warnings when you test this process - we could be hitting a permissions issue based on the Application Pool Identity Account being used in the Application Pool for your site<br /><br />Have you renamed the "Title" field in your list?
