    Submitting a form to ensure data security

    I'm still relatively new to InfoPath. Wondering how can I submit an InfoPath form and have it sent to recipients (or saved to a sharepoint site) as a PDF and/or in an uneditable formation? I want the recipients of the InforPath document to be able to fill in the form with the appropriate values from a drop down menu and then save it in such a way that it then becomes uneditable by me - to ensure data credibility.

    Thanks!

    InfoPath has no out of the box functionality to convert xml forms to PDFs.

    Within InfoPath, you can use rules and formatting to disable fields, or hide buttons, thus ensuring that users cannot make changes and resumbit.

    We have some free, introductory training on this site, which might be a good guide as you start to learn InfoPath. Let me know if you can't find the links to that training.

    Good luck!
