An Infopath solution wasn’t quite behaving as expected.
I wanted to make some changes and try some things out so i copied some of their XML files into my sharepoint document library so i’d be able to test against real data
I made the changes to the template but when i tried to edit one of the existing forms the new changes weren’t displayed. New forms were fine though
I went back into design mode and checked that the “automatically upgrade” option was selected.
I manually changed the form version number in case it hadn’t be incremented. No difference
The answer came from the newsgroups! (Thanks Scott L. Heim!)
If you open the XML file in notepad at the top of the file is a HREF entry that points to the XSN file. The entry was invalid as the files were now in a different document library (mine!)
I manually changed the entry so that it reflected my setup and all was well and i resumed testing without issue
