InfoPath Dev

Can anyone suggest how I could have sections that are:

1. Side-by-side (I know I can do this with layout tables but this presents other problems to me).

2. Overlapping (i.e. one "behind" another), with buttons/tabs/links used to "activate" one of the sections and bring it to the top. I saw one suggestion using multiple views inhttp://www.infopathdev.com/howto/tutorials/default.aspx?i=7810fbeb7db6415e8b6d96a4a2bfd005, and was wondering if it can be done within same view.

Thanks,

P.S. If both of these sound weird, I am thinking of using InfoPath as a GUI to fill a form, where both the data entry GUI and resulting form are InfoPath sections.

Hi ShaulDar and welcome to the forum! I'm glad you found the HowTo useful!

What problems are you having with the layout tables? As far as I know, this would be the best route to take. You might try nesting tables within tables, this presents more flexibility.

For number 2, I think multiple views is the only way this can be accomplished. With enough tweaking (using images, etc.) you can make a tabbed content pane that looks GREAT.
