    Open InfoPath from an Access form or vice-versa.

    I want to have a button on an Access form or an InfoPath form that I can use to open either application. Is this possible through code?

    Hi,

    Can you just brief you question? I couldn't get it what you actually want.

    Thanks for the reply. Basically I wanted a button to open Infopath from an Access form. I was able to do it using a .bat file that had a command to open  a specified location infopath form.

     

    Here's what I did and it worked!:

    (1) Created a .bat file in notepad with the following command line:

     Start/d "H:\Designer Folder\Personnel Database" PersonnelVersionV11.xsn

    I used " " because the path name had spaces.

    (2) Added a macro in Access to run this "App" or .bat. file.

     

    (3) Add a button in the Access form to run the macro.

     

    WIN!

     

    Thanks for your effort, I really appreciate and I'm sorry I was not clear enough.
