    Data gather via email uploadd to Access 2007

    I created an email by starting in Access 2007 using the "gather data" wizard. I first tried using the HTML format for the form and that worked great. the wizard also allows you to specify using InfoPath 2007 for the form. I created the form in infopath and started the wizard. Clicked on use infopath and it pretty much created the same form as it did using the HTML setting. I want to be able to email my form to recipients (they all have infopath 2007 on their machines) have them fill out the form and submit it back to me (which I have working). It's the next step where the reply is received by Outlook put in the appropriate folder and uploaded to Access 2007 automatically. It's this last step where Outlook receives it puts it in a speccific folder and then uploads to Access that I can't figure out how to do. Can anyone help??

    Hi Ron,

    Have you read Mel's post on a split Email/SharePoint scenario? You can use a similar approach for your Email/Access scenario. The only difference is the submit at the end. Some configuration is required, but should be pretty easy to setup. See her blog post here: http://www.infopathdev.com/blogs/mel_balsamo/archive/2009/05/19/using-e-mail-forms-to-communicate-with-external-users.aspx
