Comment on Using Sharepoint UserGroup Web Service with InfoPath Forms Service by admin

Good question, I’m not sure how you could do this. Only thought is if there is a data bound event that fires, like in .NET gridview for example – but I seriously doubt something like that would exist in InfoPath. Is there anything you could do if you tell Infopath to fetch the data when the form opens, I think that is an option ? Maybe you could try the Infopath forums to see if there is a way.

Sorry I couldn’t help!
Ian.

how do I make all of the values and display names lowercase? I’m tried using the translate function but that only makes the first value/display name lowercase.

Hi All,

I found a solution to start the workflow from list view page (AllItems.aspx). I am calling the StartWorkflow method in Workflow webservice through XmlHttpRequest.

Thanks,
Manas

It is great to see such a good article.
I am using Sharepoint cascaded lookup from http://www.sharepointboost.com/cascaded-lookup.html to do that job right now. I think I will try your way.

Hi Ian,

I have looked at so many blogs and have desperately tried to get this working but to no avail. I have followed your instructions to the absolute letter, but when I try to design the form from the manifest.xsf, I just get the error:

The XML schema specified in the form definition (.xsf) file for dataObject “HR Advisors” cannot be used.

I’m really tearing my hair out over this – would be really grateful if you can suggest anything to try.

TIA,

Rich.
