Re: How can I make Sharepoint open my infopath forms in the 2007 version?

Thank you Ted,

Yes, I have changed the setting by going into Degault Programs in Control Panel.

I have set .xsn, .xlst, .xml , .xsd....all these files to open with infopath 2007.

This did not work , though, as the forms are still opening in 2010.

I have flushed out the recently opened forms in infopath 2010 but still this problem is not solved yet.

Any help will be appreciated.

Have you changed the settings on your computer to make InfoPath 2007 the default for opening XML?

Another way that might work is to open InfoPath 2007 and then open the XML directly within InfoPath although that is not a long term solution and is a manual solution so not easy to do all the time.

There may be a way to add a custom column in SharePoint that forces the document to open in InfoPath 2007 (basically concactenate a hyperlink with the proper syntax to open in InfoPath 2007).

How can I make Sharepoint open my infopath forms in the 2007 version?

I recently installed Office 2010 and suddenly all my sharepoint forms want to open in infopath 2010. Office 2007 and Office 2010 co-exist on my computer.

Where and How do I change settings so that when I open my forms in sharepoint they will still open in InfoPath 2007

Thank you in advance
