How to modify the default namespace? "Martin Eckart" <moartl17[ at ]yahoo.de> 17.07.2006 15:37:53 Hi NG, Does anyone know how to modify the default namespace "tempuri.org" and replace by custom one in an existing .xsn file (meaning in all sub files like manifext.xsf, template.xml, ...)? Thank you very much, Martin

Why do you need to change this? Is there a legitimate business reason, or just curious? -- Greg Collins [Microsoft MVP] Visit Brain Trove ( http://www.BrainTrove.com ) Visit InfoPathDev ( http://www.InfoPathDev.com )

Re: How to modify the default namespace? "Martin Eckart" <moartl17[ at ]yahoo.de> 18.07.2006 06:48:25 I did that. But than I do get error messages that my Web Service Calls do not work anymore, so I assume that this is not the best way to do that... It is a Security issue and the company I am working for wants me to change that. Now that we have ~20 forms in production I need to find a way how to best deal with that. Any idea?

Re: How to modify the default namespace? "Greg Collins [InfoPath MVP]" <gcollins_AT_msn_DOT_com> 18.07.2006 16:30:19 I'm not a security expert, so I don't understand how a namespace definition is considered a security issue. I wonder if they are going overboard on something that is not the issue they think it is. Maybe someone else can jump in here and either explain it to me, or back me up that it's not really an issue. If all you did was change the string "tempuri.org" to "somethingelse" in every location it is present, then I would have assumed that it would work correctly. If not, then perhaps the WS is "expecting" that namespace definition. If so, then I don't know what more you can do unless there is some way to change the WS expectations. Good luck! -- Greg Collins [Microsoft MVP] Visit Brain Trove ( http://www.BrainTrove.com ) Visit InfoPathDev ( http://www.InfoPathDev.com )

Re: How to modify the default namespace? S.Y.M. Wong-A-Ton 18.07.2006 18:14:02 Like Greg said, the namespace cannot be a security issue, unless it is being used somehow/somewhere for authentication, authorization, or access control. And if that is the case, I'd recommend reviewing your security design first before trying to change it. --- S.Y.M. Wong-A-Ton "Martin Eckart" wrote: [Quoted Text] > I did that.
