Saving an IP form back to SharePoint

[sstern01]

Hello

I have an IP form published to our SP server where employees can
access the form. After they fill out the form and click on save, the
dialog asks to save as--and it must be a different name each time they
save the form. The form is a status report that we need to save each
time the employee fills it out. I'd like the report to be saved with
the same employee name each time, with only the time stamp on the
server distinguishing the version saved. As it stands, they have to
keep saving it with their name and a new date each time, or it will
overwrite the previous report.

Can someone tell me what I'm missing??

Thanks very much.

Hi,

U can do it in a simpler way.
1)Keep a field in ur datasource called FormName(Formname should the the
logined user name, get this name using code and Concate the present time to
the formname)
2)You can update this field each time u submit or save the form.
3)If u use a Submit dataconnection(eg to SharePoint),then there is an option
to specify or select the Form Name from a field in the Datasource.
Use this option to specify the name from the FormName field.


I hope this will help for you.
