Well, there are always code involve, which is VB script embedded into InfoPath template. So we just use infopath publishing wizard to publish it.
I just finished publishing infopath template today in three different libraries (manual mapping) and my eyes are still hurting.

Hi Arya.

So what you guys do,when there is code involved with an Infopath form? I mean there is no option then,u have to do it that way. without Central admin,i feel it will be hard to get.

Hi Vishal, I don’t have access to SharePoint server, just have full control over the sites, so I don’t think I can use Central Admin. I am fairly new to Sharepoint so I might be wrong.

Thank you,
Arya

Well,why don't you do this,publish form through Central Admin,and then create different data connections.On every button,add an action,submit form using dataconnection,to whichever library you want,plus the second requirement that you are having is adding extra column to the Sharepoint form Library,publish all the fields to a library and then modify view in every library to make that column viewable.

I did exactly this when i was required to publish form to 3 Form libraries,if ur case is much larger than that,as u said 100 of columns,than i think this is quiet a tedious task.

Hmm! Thank you, if that’s the case then, it would be highly inconvenient if someone has, for example 100+ columns. I am wondering if any 3rd party tool available for that.

i have also faced similar sort of situations, but never was able to find a solution for this. I think there is no easy way we can do it.

Publishing InfoPath form to two different SharePoint libraries (or different server / site)

Hi I am having issues when trying to publish InfoPath to SharePoint library.
We have a InfoPath SharePoint application where form moves to one library to another, when certain task is completed. After publishing new form to the first library, I wanted to publish it to different SharePoint libraries, because I want to add extra column to SharePoint library, so I need to republish it in order to map the field to SharePoint column (I don’t know if there is any other way do it). However , after choosing correct library in InfoPath (publishing wizard), in next window (where column name appear), when I press modify, I can see, instead of “in this library” its "None: Create new site column" is selected in site column group dropdown box. I can manually map each site column with InfoPath field in this wizard, but I have more than 150 columns. I think I am doing it wrong. Could anyone guide me to the right direction?

Also when I tried to publish the form in different site, which has exact same library as other site (for which form was published successfully), but for the other site, even though its exactly same library, I see "create a new document library" is selected, and when I choose "Update the form template in an existing document library" then choose the library name, I see exact same thing happened as before, that is, all column mapping are gone? Most likely I am doing it wrong, Can anybody please guide me????
