InfoPath Dev

Maybe a silly question but you do have InfoPath installed, right? To use InfoPath emails in Outlook you also do need InfoPath installed See this article for all the details: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath-help/use-infopath-e-mail-forms-in-outlook-HA010164549.aspx Ted

Hi and welcome to the InfoPath Dev forums. Is your goal for the users to fill an actual form out via email?  If that is the case the option you have chose (send only the active view of the form and no attachment) is not sending them a form but rather a snapshot of the form.  In order for them to actually fill out the form and check a ...

Do you have SharePoint? If you have SharePoint you could submit this form to a SharePoint calendar list using either custom code or qRules (http://www.qdabra.com/en/products/qRules.aspx) and then users can connect their outlook to the SharePont list (In SharePoint you there is a button in the list to connect to your Outlook).  Then that ...

We have developed products that will help ...

Hi Anita, I don't write code myself so I can't speak to that - perhaps someone else could chime in. We designed qRules for people like me that use InfoPath and want to expose advanced functionality normally only available with code. Ted

Hi NM, you should use a regular table in InfoPath, non repeating.  Name the field in your form for what the metric is, that way the column in SharePoint will export that name to Excel for reporting.  Once exported to Excel you can do piviot reporting on the data.  The data should be presented horizontally in Excel from SharePoint. ...

Hi Anita, There are a couple of ways to do this as far as I know: 1. Have multiple data connections in your form, each referencing to the different possible libraries you want to submit to.  Create a submit button for each of those libraries and then using conditional formatting to show/hide the correct button for the library.  The ...

Ged, did Hilary's post help you resolve this issue? Thanks Ted
