WSS 2.0 Web Service - GetListsItems() Resolving GUIDS to column names.

Question

Hello,

 

 

We are storing Infopath documents in a WSS 2.0 SharePoint Form Library and and having trouble retrieving the Promoted properties of the infopath document. When publishing the infopath documents using the publication wizard some Form data is used as column data.

We are attempting to access the the infopath form data via the Share point web service - GetListItems() method

 

Using the Following Code:

wss2.Lists listService;

listService = new wss2.Lists();

listService.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(Username, Password, Domain);

XmlNode node = listService.GetListItems("CAD Score Card Survey", "{E73D034A-9A99-4B7A-9912-AAF13ACCF63C}", null, null, String.Empty, null);

string inner = node.InnerXml;

Yields the following results for the Promoted properties only.

ows_ID="2"

ows_Title="Kentwood 23322.xml"

.

Can anyone explain how to resolve the GUIDs into friendly names? I've noticed that Access is able to resolve the the guids so I know it's possible

 

Thanks,

Karl

 

Answer 1

I have the exact same problem a year later.  Did you ever figure this out?

Answer 2

I don't really understand why InfoPath wasn't in the Title.

I'm now moving this to the InfoPath forum where it should probably have been all along.
