    Submitting a form to sharepoint and email attachment

    Hi,

     I have a form with one submit button submitting to multiple data connections.  One data connection is to a sharepoint form library and the other data connection is an email attaching the xml file.

    Question 1.

    Is there a way to have the body of the email populate with the content of the form instead of having an attachment?  I'm not a coder so if code is needed, please be specific.

    Question 2.

    When the submit button is hit, I get a security dialog box referencing the email that is about to be sent.  It gives the option to cancel the email.  I don't want to give an end user the option to cancel the email upon submission.  Is there a way to gray out the cancel button or eliminate the dialog box entirely?

    Thanks
    Lou

    Hi Lou.

    In IP2007 you have the option of having the view in the body or the attachment, I am guessing you have 2003 probably. I believe you can do it using code in 2003.

    It is a trust issue for the email acknowledgement.  So that viruses cannot send email without the user's consent.  You would need to use code and full-trust to eliminate the email pop-up and send button.

    Or, with our Web Service suite, you can have email generated from the server as the submits occur so that it is seamless to the user.  It also then allows for notification regarding overdue forms in work flow etc.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for the quick reply.

     Yes....using InfoPath 2003.  Any code that you might be able to throw my way for both items would be appreciated.

     Thanks again.

    Is it possible to eliminate the email pop up box if I go into Form Options, Security, and digitally sign the form with a certificate?

     it says that signed forms can be would be fully trusted and autimatically updated when sent as email attachments.

    ??

     Thanks

    You would have to try it.  I thought, at least with the submit that it still popped up the dialog box, but maybe it doesn't.  I know once it is full trust you can use code and it will not prompt them.
