This article will get you started publishing to SharePoint:

Using SharePoint as a secondary data source (in your Admin Hour Viewer Form):

The MSDN site has some really good resources, it would definitely be a good place to start.

Yes, this is definitely possible and there are numerous ways to approach it.

One suggestion is that instead of using an Excel spreadsheet you could use a "Admin Hour Viewer" form that references the timesheet Sharepoint library and pulls all of the hours from there and groups them accordingly.

Linking Infopath to Excel

Marc — Thu, 19 Jan 2006 16:30:30 GMT

Hi,

As a very new user of Infopath, could anyone tell me if it's possible to use an Infopath form to post data to an Excel spreadsheet?

I've created a 'Timesheet' form and I'd like to give this to the team to record their weekly effort figures, and have it update a central Excel spreadsheet.

Thanks,

Marc
