DocActionEvent Object

DocActionEvent

An event object that is used during a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 button click event. The DocActionEvent object provides a number of properties that can be used within a button click event to programmatically interact with the data in a form's underlying XML document and to control the success or failure of the event.

Remarks

The DocActionEvent object is passed as a parameter to the OnClick event button that is contained in a view of an InfoPath form. Its properties are available only during the OnClick event.

Using the DocActionEvent object

In the following example, the Source property of the DocActionEvent object is used to display the source XML data of the inner-most XML Document Object Model (DOM) node of the form's underlying XML document, which contains the button:

    function ShowDocActionEventSource::OnClick(eventObj)
{
   XDocument.UI.Alert("Source: " + eventObj.Source.xml);
}
