Thread: auto generate quote number

auto generate quote number
"td" <tx2[ at ]hotmail.com> 11/24/2008 9:51:33 PM
I am new to InfoPath. I have been asked to create a sales form. I have the
entire form created but need to find a way to auto generate a quote number
field. I will be publishing this form to a sharepoint server and I also have
a SQL 2005 server that I would like to submit the forms to once a user
clicks on a submit button. I am hoping someone can help me find a way to
auto generate the quote number and then make it so that if the quote is
opened in the future that they quote number can't be edited.

Hi,
You can use the GetlistItems web method to get the auto generated number
given by sharepoint itself.
Use the following link to know how to use this method. http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/agni/archive/2006/05/15/Query-for-Items-in-SharePoint-Form-Library-Using-GetListItems-Web-Method.aspx
