Hi

I have a reasonably complex infopath form that I want to submit to a biztalk
orchestration webservice. I am hitting 1 problem which is really causing me a
headache. When I use the sumit button in Infopath I get the following error:


The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to read
request. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: There is an error in XML
document (1, 565). ---> System.FormatException: String was not recognized as
a valid DateTime.
at System.DateTimeParse.ParseExactMultiple(String s, String[] formats,
DateTimeFormatInfo dtfi, DateTimeStyles style, DateTime& result)

provider, DateTimeStyles style)

Now it seems these fields are entered using a DatePicker and the date is
clearly not going into the webservice in a correct format. Anybody come
across this before and more importantly found a workaround?

Thanks

Andy

Hello,

Have you looked at the data that is actually transmitted to the server? I
would recommend a Network Monitor (like Ethereal) to monitor the traffic.
You can then see in what format the datetime is sent.

Instean of using a Network monitor, you might find it more simple to fiddler
(http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/) a proxy that monitors and displays the
traffic.
