Data filter option.

[rajuws]

Hi,
An infopath form is designed based on the XML file. The file has the
following nodes.

Fieldgroup (node)
Field1 codelist1
Field2 codelist2

Codelistgroup ( node)
codelist1 (subnode)
value11
value12
codelist2 (subnode)
value21
value22

A dropdown list is created for each field using the Function - list values
based on the form's data.

The valuelist for field 2 displays all the values in both the codelists. I
would like to put a fillter. But, this option is not supported in brower
forms. Can you please advise how to put a filter. Thxs.

Can we do this programatically.

Hi,

The Office Server supports most of the features of the InfoPath rich client.
However, some features are not supported, including the use of scripting
languages, roles, custom task panes, filters, and some controls.

You can perform filtering by making use of webservices.

sHi Ramana,
Thanks for your response. The code list values exist in XML data file as a
separate node. The data exist in the form itself. My understanding is that
web services can be used to receive or submit the data from external source.
I would like to display the values based on a filter. Is there any way to
put this filter by using managed code. Please advise. thxs.
