InfoPath NEWBIE mistake #1
OK, so I've made my first major InfoPath blunder. Being a javascript afficionado I decided that I'd create my InfoPath forms using javascript as the codebehind model as opposed to using the new, .NET model which comes with the Infopath 2003 Toolkit for Visual Studio.Net.
It was a simple mistake; basically I thought that, because InfoPath forms are quite "lightweight" that scripting would be ideal and that it would be a perfect way to keep my js skills intact.
I guess that I must've forgotten about the BCL and how so much of the repetitive code that we write has been abstracted behind this monolithic wall of classes.
Need some examples?
- Adding days to a Date
- Writing to a file
- Working with Xml
- Getting a Windows login account name
- Working with DataSets
I guess that I'll spend at least part of the Christmas break porting my work over :-)
