The form has to be approved by an offsite agency who doesn&#39;t have access to our Sharepoint server. I&#39;m trying to figure out the best way to set up an Infopath Form to efficiently do everything. Currently, I have a basic form setup with list boxes, check boxes, etc., then a submit button that emails the form to them and&nbsp;saves the form to our Sharepoint library.&nbsp; We are a Server2008R2 active directory domain, so I keep getting the message about attaching a copy of the template for the other party to properly read it. I&#39;m also not sure if the approving party has Infopath. At the moment, the e-mail form is just the filled in boxes. All that is needed to approve the form is the approving party e-mails us back with the submitted form and they simply type &quot;request approved&quot; in the body of the email.&nbsp; This is for a casino, so I can&#39;t setup the router to allow non-employees to access the Sharepoint server (though it is possible from a tech standpoint..policy is another question)</p> <p>I experimented some with MS Access 2010 and e-mail data connection that would update the database based on a reply of the e-mail that had a unique ID tagged to it.&nbsp; I have Laura Rogers Infopath 2010/Sharepoint 2010 book, but I didn&#39;t see any reference about e-mail connections with Infopath.</p>
