Using the Save method sets the Dirty property of the form to false as soon as the form is saved.

This member can be accessed only by forms opened from a form template that as been configured to run with full trust using the Security and Trust category of the Form Options dialog box. This member requires full trust for the immediate caller and cannot be used by partially trusted code. For more information, see "Using Libraries from Partially Trusted Code" on MSDN.

This type or member can be accessed only from code running in forms opened in Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007.

Example

In the following example, the New property is used to determine if the form has been saved previously, and if so, the Save method is used to save the form to the URL that it is currently associated with.

if(this.New)
{
   this.SaveAs("c:\\myforms\\form1.xml");
}
else
{
   this.Save();
}

If(Me.New) Then
   Me.SaveAs("c:\\myforms\\form1.xml")
Else
   Me.Save()
End If
