Since the form is hosted in MOSS you can use SPD(SharePoint Designer) to build the strings you need in the any format you'd want the email in. You can do plain text or jazz it up with some HTML. Create a Work-flow then capture and do lookup to the fields you need for the current InfoPath form. You can send the email to any email address you specify.

Good afternoon,

I've designed a browser-enabled form, hosted in a Sharepoint library, to submit billing information to a billing department. Unfortunately they have a front end system which automatically processes received emails into tickets. The Infopath forms we have submitted to the system come out illegible in their ticketing system as it just does a C&P of the raw XML.

Is there a way to convert filled out fields from an Infopath form to an email containing human readable plain text?

From other topics on this forum it looks like a chunk of code might be required to get this done. Unfortunately, I'm a GUI-only Infopath user, and am unable to generate something from scratch.

Two questions:

1. Is there a standard form -> plain text email chunk of code out there already? If so, please provide a link. I think I could modify an example to suit my needs.

2. Once I have that code, how to I shoe-horn it into the form? I'm guessing I have to insert a button and then insert the code into that button? Really clueless here.

If anyone could lend a hand, I'd much appreciate it

Thanks, and regards,
