InfoPath Dev

Hi, everybody,

I have created form that submits to SharePoint site that uses File Attachment inside repeating session to give user ability to attach as many files as he needs, but my client wants to be able to attach email messages from Outlook without the need to create at first file and then attached. He is dreaming about drag and drop from Outlook to Infopath or some other kind of import possiblity.

Is there any way to fullfill his dreams?

Thanks in advance for any idea.

There is no easy way to accomplish this.

And I do not think you could get drag and drop functionality.  At best you could use a coded solution but the user would still need to select the particular message. Also this would require your form to be Full Trust and installed.

What about the user creates a zip file of all of the files related to a form, and then attaches that. That may get closer to the functionality they are looking for.

It is good for customers to dream big and reach for the stars, but sometimes you have to give them a reality check. :)
