Is there a way to add a logo that is held within a sharepoint pic library to a browser based web form?

Hi,

Here are the links to use images in the browser form.

Did you try already and it didn't work? You can just insert it into your form template without it being hosted anywhere. If you want it to be referencing something in a doc lib, then you'll have to create a data connection to that lib and display it in a picture control. This is not the same as just making it part of your form template on the canvas, but if that's what you want to do...

The article is fine regarding setting up a data retrieve connection into the library.
But after that it starts going on about adding it to repeating table.

All I want to do is select one image from the library, not loop through them all and add them to a repeating section.

Does anyone have instructions on what to do after the data connection has been setup?

Just select it, put it into a data element (using logic to pick that exact pic based on some metadata like filename) on your main data source, drag that element to the canvas, and make it a picture control.

Clayton,

can you expand on this.

1.The data connection has been setup.
2. Insert rich text box into form and filter it (use the new data connection and filter on the name of the image)
3. There is no option to make it a picture control as it is browser enabled.

Oh yeah - browser form. I'll have to look back at my form that does it to remember the settings.

You don't have to use a data connection, nor a repeating table, if you just want to use 1 image and the URL to the image will not change. I've simplified the code for you in this blog post.

Thanks for the blog, however when I try and paste this into the loading event after this....

Public Sub FormEvents_Loading(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As LoadingEventArgs)

' Write your code here.

I receive a number of errors including...

Error 1 'XPathNavigator' is a type and cannot be used as an expression. C:\Documents and Settings\sharepoint\My Documents\InfoPath Projects\Template1\FormCode.vb 30 1 Template1

Am I missing something simple?

It looks like you want to use Visual Basic code instead of C#? The code in the blog post is C#. So you can do one of two things:

Set the programming language for your InfoPath form template to use C#.
Convert the C# code to Visual Basic.

I've updated the post with the Visual Basic version, if you want to go with the second option.
