# EnableAutoUpdate Method

Enables automatic synchronization between a form's underlying XML document and the associated View object.

expression.EnableAutoUpdate()

expression Required. An expression that returns a reference to the View object.

## Security Level

2: Can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.

## Remarks

The views in a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 form are automatically synchronized with the data that is contained in a form's underlying XML document. However, this can be overridden using the DisableAutoUpdate method. To re-enable synchronization, use the EnableAutoUpdate method.

## Example

In the following example, the EnableAutoUpdate method of the View object is used to enable synchronization between a form's underlying XML document and the view that it is associated with:

    XDocument.View.EnableAutoUpdate();
