Submitting form to Sharpoint site

T

Todd

Just having some trouble submitting a form to a sharepoint site.
I have set up the form so that it allows you to email the form and submit at
same time but the submit function is not working. It comes up with the error
message "InfoPath cannot submit the form.
An error occurred while the form was being submitted.
A value in the form may be used to specify the file name. If you know the
value in the form that specifies the file name, revise it and try again.
Otherwise, contact the author of the form template."
It is attempting to submit the form using the title as the file name - I
have tried varying this a nummber of times without success. I started using
the function concat("Incident Report - ",title) and then just had
name(title). Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried using the insert field instead of typing in title? I
have found that works best.

I have had the same problem when just typing in the field name and not using
the insert field.

I would use the insert field instead of typing title. Using this puts the
field name underlined in the formula.

you can write concat("Incident Report - ", and then click on the insert
field ).
