Multiple views for People without infopath?

[Patrick]

Hello,
I have a form that I need to send to a few people who do not have infopath.
In that form I have 2 views. I have followed the MS suggested method for
making my form avalible in internet explorer and I have specified the
view1.xsl file in the template, but how do I add the second view? I dont want
the user to be able to change views of anything, I just want the the form to
show the view that it was saved as. Any suggestions?

Hi Patrick

Please use these methods to switch views on Save and also read the InfoPath
SDK documentaion for more Information.

<xsd:element name="switchViewAction">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:attribute name="view" type="xsf:xdViewName" use="required"/>
</xsd:complexType>
<xsd:keyref name="switchViewAction_view_keyref" refer="xsf:view_name_key">
<xsd:selector xpath="." />
<xsd:field xpath="@view"/>
</xsd:keyref>
</xsd:element>

<xsd:element name="closeDocumentAction">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:attribute name="promptToSaveChanges" type="xsf:xdYesNo"
use="required"></xsd:attribute>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Wow. Thanks for the response. Unfotunately I'm pretty new to infopath, and
I have only played around with template, manifest and the view files, so I'm
a little lost at this point. I did some reading of the sdk after I got your
post but I still need a little help as far as where to put your suggestion.
Can you elaborate a little as far as where it goes.
