Limitations in the InfoPath Web Forms Deployment
Pashamn has started to compile a list of limitations in the InfoPath Web Forms deployment. Here is a snippit of what he has discovered:
- No native write to SQL databases. The ease of use of establing an ADO connection to SQL or Access, and being able to query and write back to a database is lost. Instead you will probably need to talk to the DB via a web service.
- No roundtripping for cascading picklists. Something I do all the time is have one picklist be a filter for another picklist. Common example, pick a state, which then filters the city field dropdown. Can't do that in a web form.
- Summary list of controls that aren't supported in web forms:
- ComboBox
- Multiple-Selection List Box
- Master/Detail
- Bulleted, Numbered and Plain List
- Picture
- Ink Picture
- Vertical Label
- Scrolling and Horizontal Region
- Horizontal Repeating Table
- Choice Group
- Repeating Choice Group
- Choice Section
- Repeating Recursive Section
- ActiveX Controls
