Submit "filled" InfoPath form to SharePoint Library with specified

  Asked By: Brendan Weaver         Date: Dec 20, 2009      Category: MOSS      Views: 398
 

This may be a simple issue, but one that I don't know how to resolve. I've
successfully created my first InfoPath form template. I've published it to a
library in our SharePoint site. I've enabled "Submit" on the form. The problem
is that the form is added to the library simply named "form"... since 150+
people will at varying times be submitting forms, it would be quite helpful for
each form to be submitted with something along the lines of
EmployeeName_TitleofActivity_DateofActivity (where EmployeeName,
TitleofActivity, DateofActivity are all fields in the form).

The form is web-browser enabled, so that users have the ability to fill out the
form in the browser if they are away from their desktop computers which have
Infopath 2007 installed.

How do I make this automatic naming of the completed forms happen?

We're using MOSS2007, Office 2007, and I have SharePoint Designer 2007. I am not
a programmer and do not have the skills/knowledge to code anything.

In the Data Connection Wizzard you need to create a unique file name. Suggest
concatenating the fields  but you'll have to do some formatting to handle the
DateofActivity field.
