Errors Property

Microsoft Office InfoPath

A read-only property that returns a reference to the Errors collection that is associated with a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 form.

expression.Errors

expression    Required. An expression that returns a reference to an XDocument object.

Security Level

2: 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.

Remarks

The Errors collection is associated with a form's underlying XML document so that when an error occurs, it occurs within the XML document. After you set a reference to the Errors collection, you can access all of its properties and methods for managing the errors within an InfoPath form.

Example

In the following example, the Errors property of the XDocument object is used to return the count of the number or errors and then display that value in a message box:

var intErrors;

intErrors = XDocument.Errors.Count;
XDocument.UI.Alert("Total number of errors: " + intErrors);
