    Make InfoPath form available for Remote Users

    Hi, I have an InfoPath form that is published to a network location for users on the network to use; they fill it out and submit the form which will email the form to a mailbox. It works great but now I need to make the form available to remote users to use when they are offline. For instance, a remote user may be out on location where he/she has no access to our network but may need to fill out the form and submit the form so that it is put into his/her outbox just like any emails the user creates whilst on location. I am unable to give the user a copy of the form as it always seems to need to be able connect to the published form on the network. Note: The form I use to develop form is on one place on the network and the published version is in another place. The form was originally created using 2007 but I am now using 2010. Can anyone help me make the form available to remote users? Kind Regards, IZM

    Hi-

    Does the form have any data connections that may be trying to access a server location? There's really nothing else I can think of that would prevent a local publish and offline use of the form.

    No, all the data is local to the form. It's just that the published form on the network seems to be required in order to use locally!

    What is the best method for local forms? I have used the Export Source Files but there must be a best practice for local offline forms?!
