Another Submit Button Question

[HJF]

I have an InfoPath form that users will be filling out. Currently, the
testing process is, once the form is completed, select File, Save As,
navigate to the specific directly, save the file using a pre-defined naming
format. I would like to eliminate the possibility of the user navigating to
the wrong directory.

What I would like to do is add a Submit button. Upon clicking 'Submit',
this would then take the user to the required directory that the file needs
to be saved to. The user would then type in the pre-defined naming format
and click save. (reducing the chance of hitting the wrong directory.)

Programming is not a forte, so if I have to program something, suggestions
would have to be pretty specific...

Thanks in advance...

Have a look at this article:

There were many more before you trying to achieve the same, so you should be
able to find examples if you do a search in this newsgroup.

Thank you for your time and suggestion.

While this didn't work for me, I did some further browsing among the entries
on this discussion site. I found a posting on 6/17/2006 by Kalyan Reddy
under the "Submit to Webservice Button". This is exactly what I was looking
for. I have tried and tested and it works wonderfully! I have even added
the feature to generate the file name on save. That has made it so much
easier for the users.

Thanks again!!
