    Opening Emailed Forms

    I created an InfoPath form and published it to my desktop.  I then emailed the template to my end-users to save to their desktops.  Once they have completed the InfoPath form, they email the completed form to other users and those recipients are unable to open the emailed form.  How can I eliminate this from happening so that all emailed forms can be opened by all recipients?

    Hi,

    There might be several cases for this,it might be because of permissions to the form.

    Can you give the details of error shown when the form is tried to open.

    The error message being received is as follows:  InfoPath cannot open the following file:

    The following form template for the form cannot be found.

    My assumption is if I publish the form to an Active Shared Directory on our network, then all should be fine?  Your thoughts?

    If you publish the form to a place where all users can access it (ie., SharePoint, Network drive, etc.) your users should be able to access it and open it.
