    Hi Swapna_l9 and welcome to the forum,

    You'll want to use a rule with multiple actoins. One action submits to the database and another to e-mail or a SharePoint form library. Submitting to a SharePoint list is not support out-of-the-box. We have a tool that does it, but a Form Library is easy to set up and that doesn't require anything special. If you need a SharePoint list (and not a SharePoint form library), we can show you our tool. Hopefully, you can just use a SharePoint form library in addition to your database. Best of luck!

    Hello,

    You can add two actions to the button rules, one is to submit data to database and second action sends email.
    Adding rules
    1. Double click on button to open button properties dialog
    2. Click on rules button in the button properties dialog.
    3. Click on add button.
    4. Click on add action button
    5. Select "Submit using dataconnection"
    6. Select database submit dataconnection.
    7. Follow 5-6 steps and select "Email" dataconnection instead of database connection.
    8. Click ok to set the rules.

    Hi Shiva,

    Thanks for your quicker response. I can not find rules button in the button properties dialog. I am using InfoPath 2003. Please advise.

     

    Thanks,
