InfoPath Dev

Hi So I have an InfoPath 2010 form with some custom code in it, I now want to send this form out to some people via email publishing.

Its people outside my organization so I can’t publish it to a SharePoint. The thing is that I don’t want them to be able to edit the form only look at it and answer the questions like normal users.

When I tested now I can just right click and save the xsn file and save it and then right click again and chose edit. So is there some way via IRM or something I can restrict this?

Is it really an issue though?  Even if they edit the template they will do so locally, they don't have access to your SharePoint site so they won't be able to publish that template back to your SharePoint.  They will send you back an XML.  I guess the corner case here would be a user saving the template and editing and then sending you back an XML that no longer matches your schema.  While certainly possible it seems to me to be a corner case.

Thanks for the reply.

However i don’t use SharePoint as you could read in the first post.

So i just send it out to some external users, and i dont want them to steal and make changes to my work basically. I know its an xml file so its easy to edit and just turn off whatever i put in the file and turning off stuff and so. But just anything is better then nothing if you know what i mean
