You do have this ability but it is somewhat limited.
Create a new form
Selct it to be based on a database
Browse to your Access table
The wizard will create a form which can both query and submit to the table.
Your XML data source would need to be the secondary then.
For greater flexibility you need to use SQL and Web services. Then you can ...

I would say with that amount of data you should switch to SQL Express and use a web service. Then you can query for a specific value and only return those values.
That would be the way to go if you want this to perform acceptably.

To my knowledge the ink support is just for the ink controls and is only supported on Tablet XP or Vista.
This means you can create a picture control which can be inked upon or a blank control for a signature or drawing.
Other controls could be used with the hand writing recognition to add text but would not support inking outside of the one ink ...

Hey Jeffrey.
I think the publishing part is what you have been missing.
If you use Explorer view on the document library you will find a hidden folder called forms, inside that is the template.xsn.
You can copy that to your local hard drive and rename it to work on it. You also should be able to open it, switch to design mode ...

Is there a reason why you do not use the built in submit to SP via a data connection in InfoPath? You can call the submit function with C# code. Often people over complicate it when the functionality is already built in.
You should check and make sure that the fields you want as columns are promoted in form properties. Fields are not ...
-
Best Practice is to keep a local copy of the XSN for design purposes and then Publish the form to the appropriate document library to update.
This should take care of the issues and is what InfoPath looks to do by default. If you are accessing and editing the file directly from the Sharepoint location you may have some issues.

I beleive it is possible.
You have to be a bit sneaky though.
There is no way to block printing, however you can control printing. In each view you can set which alternate view to use when they print.
I will assume you are using a AD web service to identify the user, so you know if it is the "final end user" or not. Or you are ...

Where is the Acces DB located?
I would first try running through the data connection wizard again.
Highlight main, select modify and run through the windows and see if it continues.

Unfortunately no.
Since you cannot represent the repeating elements in SharePoint there is not a way to report on them.
If you use the SQL on the Sharepoint server and use something like Qdabra's tools to extract the data then you can use SQL Reporting Services or Excel or whatever you want for reporting on the data.

This is pretty easy but not real intuitive.
Create your plus button.
create a boolean, true/false, field in your main data source.Default true
Set your repeating table conditional formatting to hide when the field is true
Set conditional formatting on the plus button to hide when the field is false and that when clicked it makes the field ...
