Hi,

Welcome to the Forums.

InfoPath provides a robust, flexible, easy-to-use design environment that enables the creation of dynamic forms that information workers can use to gather information, either for formal ongoing business processes or for informal team projects.

The same rich InfoPath client also provides an application environment in which information workers can complete forms quickly and easily.

InfoPath then connects this information to organizational business processes and makes that information easy to reuse through its support of XML, customer-defined schemas, and Web services.

Also verify below link for more information.

You need Following softwares.
1. Infopath
2. If you want to work with Coding, then you need to install Visual Studio and IP Project.
3. If you want to submit forms to sharepoint, you need Sharepoint.
4. If you want to work with Db, then you need SQL or Access.

As far as I can tell, there's no way to do it.

I have a very similar question, but I'm not using FormServer.

I'm prototyping an "electronic traveler" system for our manufacturing department. We want to track a complex, multi-step manufacturing process for various products, which have similar but not identical processes. If I can develop a "universal" traveler form that would simplify things for us.

In order to keep data management simpler, I was thinking of organizing the submitted InfoPath forms into subfolders in the Sharepoint document library. I can create a subfolder in the library, navigate to that folder, and click New to create a new InfoPath form, but when I submit the form, it is posted to the top-level of the document library. This makes sense given that the submit location logic is embedded in the form itself.

Is there a way to 1) identify the relative folder path in the document library for the newly-created form that hasn't yet been posted to the library, and 2) modify the submit location based on that?

Basically I'm looking for a "do what I expect" approach here -- I create a subfolder, and the newly-created form should be saved back to where I created it from.

Hi Sylvain,
I'm confused by the question. You want to submit a form from a Subfolder to the same Form Library (one folder up)? Is that correct? You should be able to do this using a little code to specify a relative path of ..
