InfoPath Dev

are we looking at lots of integration problems, if the sharepoint services that our server uss is 2007 version and we plan to create forms in infopath 2010.

Designing a form in InfoPath 2010 and publishing it for use in MOSS 2007 should be entirely possible. Can you provide more details concerning the integration problems you have found?

 

Hello Ernesto, 

Thank you for your response.

I am newbie at infopath and its been 3-4 months I have started learning and also designing infopath forms for  use on sharepoint site.

We already had a certain workflow designed using IP2007 and  we are working on implementing a changed workflow. So we were considering  using InfoPath 2010, so just concerned if the success of this new deployment would be dependent on using a newer version of sharepoint as well.

Also, we are concerned : would the the InfoPath version (MS office version) on all the clients's computers have to be revamped to the new version 2010, for our workflow to work without hiccups?

 

Thank you

 

Hi,

I am currently starting to use Sharepoint 2010 Foundation, and I want to utilize Infopath 2010 to make forms for my employees to fill out.  If I'm reading the book I'm using correctly, I can't have anyone fill out a form created in Infopath unless they have Infopath on their computer? (because we don't have Sharepoint Server)  Is there any known workaround for this or am I going to be limited to the out of the box forms, which are kind of basic for what I need.

Thanks

Hi, Marty - you do need InfoPath Form Services (IPFS) to use browser-based InfoPath forms. If you want to go the browser-based InfoPath form route, you could use

• Office 365  - E3 and E4 plans include InfoPath
• Qdabra FormsBoard instead of SharePoint

You can also look into SharePoint list forms, which are non-InfoPath electronic forms
