Setting user group specific permissions in InfoPath form

Question

I am trying to set specific permissions to an infopath form if a certain check box is checked. Currently, the form will automatically inherit permissions from the top level site. I want to stop this and assign different permissions to that specific form when the check box is checked. Here is the code I have so far:

        string chkBox = GetNodeValue("/my:myTipLead/my:OBDM/my:DocumentDesignation/my:AllCISOL1And2Members");
        if (chkBox == "AllCISOL1And2Members")
        {

        }

Answer 1

Why not use a workflow to set permissions? It is much simpler than managing that within the code behind of a form.

Check this blog post for sample code, or this one. You just need adapt one of these and use this code in your code block.
