InfoPath 2007 – Langagues Drop Down Control Template Part

Similar to my last post. I am unable to find a custom drop down control with list of langauges. Hence I reolved to build a template part to list most frequently spoken languages in Australia with English as default. Yet another important and frequently used control on the InfoPath forms.

Download the template part from my SkyDrive.

InfoPath 2007 Template Part – List of Countries Drop-Down Control

I am presently working on a ‘Lab Application Form’ gig for one of my clients here in Adelaide. There is a requirement for ‘Birth Country’ control on the form. It is a drop down control with the list of countries and ‘Australia’ selected as default.

List of the countries is a general control we see in lot of forms/applications. I thought it should be readily available as part of the custom controls in InfoPath 2007. I was surprised to find that, it is neither part of the custom controls nor available on the web. Hence I decided to create a custom template part with Countries Drop Down Control. Please find xtp file (template part) and source files on my ‘InfoPath2007′ public folder on SkyDrive. If you feel like changing the list of countries, please update the ‘Countries.xml’ file in the source files and save the template part.
