Parameters

  • varURI
    Type: System.Object

    Specifies the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of a form.

    Type: System.Int32

Implements

XDocuments.Open(Object, Int32)

Remarks

The Open method can only be used to open a form; it cannot be used to open a form template. To create a form from a form template, use the NewFromSolution method. To create a form based on an existing form, use the New method.

When you use the Open method, the specified form opens in InfoPath and is ready to be filled out.

Important

This member can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.

Examples

In the following example, the Open method of the XDocumentsCollection collection is passed the URI of an existing form, and the form is opened and its associated _XDocument object returned:

XDocument document;
document = thisApplication.XDocuments.Open(@"C:\MyForm.xml", 1);
