Thanks for replying my question!

Gorgiving me I am new to inforpath! Like what you said " yes, users need to have InfoPath installed on their machines", does this mean currenly when we open PDF file, we need install Acorobat reader on each machine. And What is IPFS and how to get it, is that free?

Thanks a lot!

Hello HoustonGirl,

I think you might benefit from our free InfoPath training labs. I'll paste the links below:

But, to answer your question, yes, users need to have InfoPath installed on their machines, unless you have IPFS on the server, make your forms browser-compatible, and can direct users to the SharePoint form library so they can fill out forms in the browser.

Good luck!
