I have 1 Requirement list and 1 Tasks list with InfoPath 2010 forms.

  • Tasks list having Lookup column as of Requirement Title field.
  • Both lists having Status field.

When user save Requirement (InfoPath form) with Status=Completed I want to check whether there is any corresponding tasks exist in tasks list with Status != Completed.

if so I want to show a message (or form validation) to the user saying

"Corresponding Task is open for this requirement.Please complete the open task in order to complete the requirement."

Is it possible?

Concerning comment " you can do it using custom code":

  1. Custom code is impossible for Infopath SharePoint list form;

    The question is quite evasive and ambiguous on whether the Infopath form in question is of type/compatibility Sharepoint List Form...

  2. There is no need in coding for this;

What is asked is unclear - what is the type/compatibility of Infopath form and which version of Infopath?
Why do you need message box but not validation rules or conditional formatting to show and hide a section ?

  • Thax Gennady Vanin, i have updated my question. i dont have any problem if it will be validation rules instead of message box. can u tell me how can i perform that? Jan 22, 2013 at 10:23
  • I do not see anything making your question more clear. Jan 22, 2013 at 10:44
