    Infopath Suppress Open or Save Dialog

    Does anyone know if it's possible to suppress that dialog box that comes up when you open an infopath form from Sharepoint? I get asked whether I want to open or save every time and I just always want the user to open it.

    As this functionality is built into Internet Explorer I seriously doubt that there is anyway to disable it, sorry. Or maybe there is some kind of setting or hack for IE that you could use, that's where I would start my search...

    If you can figure it out please let us know!

    Hi

    Has anyone got any ideas on this one.

    I have a number of forms that users access through a web page on our intranet. Instead of the Open/Save/Cancel buttons on the form download dialog I would prefer to have only Open and Cancel showing. This would prevent the more absent-minded users saving a copy of the form template (.xsn).

    The only other solution I can think of is to have the hyperlink on the web page pointing to a read-only .xml instead of the form template.

    Thanks

    Gary
