InfoPath Dev

Hello,
I am having a problem with Infopath 2007 form.
Requirement:
In one of the section of the Infopath 2007 form there should be an option to use Excel file template. The excel template have only 4 columns. The excel template would be saved within the Infopath form so that only this template can be used in that section.

My solution:
I created the excel file with those 4 columns and saved it on my computer. While creating the File Attachment field on the properties , I checked "Specify default file" with the excel file I created. The excel template is saved on the form.

Problem:
After I publish the form and When the user opens this excel template, the data he enters in that excel file is not saved. How is the value entered in that excel file be saved? Please need your suggestions.

The user will need to save the file to their desktop and then reattach the file for the changes to be saved.  If you open the file directly from InfoPath it will only save it to a temp location on your local machine and not back into the InfoPath form.  Hope that makes sense.

Anson,

Thank you very much for the clarification.

Is it the problem with Excel template only or with any templates?

Gennady Vanin, The user should save the template to the computer and reattach again. It is working that way now. Thanks.
