SharePoint - Data connection library problem
Asked By Chri
19-Sep-07 01:12 PM
I have a couple of UDC files in a library, all with a status of "Pending" and
they must be marked as approved before they can be used in browser based
forms. The UDC files were created via InfoPath data connections.
When I go to check in the files, I get an error stating that all fields need
to be filled in. The one property that is missing is the Title field. Even if
I specify a title and save the file, the title field is not saving properly.
I don't see anywhere in the UDC file where I can specify a title either.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

I had this problem too. The problems is the Title property field that is required but you cannot edit it. This was my 'work around' solution:
- Go to the Form Library Settings of your data connections library.
- Click the Universal Data Connection File content type link and go to advance settings
- Select 'No' in ReadOnly: 'Should this content type be read only? ' and OK
- Now click the Title column and under Column Settings select the optional option and click Ok.
- Go back to your library and check in the UDCs files and approve it as normal.

Error in WSS 3 and InfoPath: Updating the Content Type Failed SharePoint I am getting an error when trying to publish an InfoPath form to a WSS 3 site. The form has previously published without issue. This afternoon require deleting data from my SharePoint site? Here's the background: The problem occurs after InfoPath shows the, Updating the Content Type message. Infopath sits, then seems to timeout at 30 seconds. I have seen some posts that this is a common problem. One person said that the 30 second timeout is hardcoded into InfoPath. Some people said that the way to resolve it is to delete a enough data FYI. . . a couple of posts I found. . . . http: / / thorprojects.com / blog / archive / 2007 / 06 / 26 / infopath-2007-publishing-to-sharepoint-updating-the-site-content-type-failed.aspx http: / / forums.microsoft.com ShowPost.aspx?PostID = 2261167&SiteID = 17 SharePoint Windows Services Discussions SQL Server (1) Aciwd2Wt22WsR7uKSuO (1) InfoPath 2007 (1) U2NvdHRILS0t (1) SharePoint (1) InfoPath (1) MOSS 2007 (1) MimeOLE (1) - -- -- - = _NextPart_0001_C0467CC9 Content-Type: text / plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I'll do some further research and discuss with some other infopath and
than a list? I've been able to see two advantages: - -Graphic design flexibility in InfoPath - -The ability to fill out forms offline, then save to the SharePoint site when you're connected. Are there other benefits that I'm not recognizing? Using InfoPath with SharePoint seems to make things much more complex, so I'd like to understand the complexity.

You can do much more with it than you list hence the complexity Once you've done that there is as far as I know one or more InfoPath newsgroups for your follow-up questions. The negatives is that you either need MOSS 2007 you need to have a separate server running Forms Server OR you need to have InfoPath 2007 on every client in order for your users to be able to use the
MOSS - Deploying Web Parts, InfoPath templates, WCF SharePoint I am developing a solution on MOSS that uses Infopath 2007 Form Templates, and web parts. They both communicate to WCF web services(hosted on stsadm addwppak commands (probably in some batch file). Next, I would like to deploy my InfoPath form template to the SharePoint. The InfoPath will submit to a different web service. I have determined that for this to work add it during the installation process.? 2. Is there a way I can set my InfoPath form template to look to a relative location for this file on the server rather The alternative is to have MSBUILD run a javascript file I found on MSDN for Infopath 2003 that disassembles the template xsn file, and replaces the server references with the correct one depending on the deployment environment. What is the best way to do InfoPath development & testing? I will have a few developers working on the infopath forms and they shouldn't have to reconfigure the form to point to their local
