InfoPath Dev

I know Infopath is not very sophisticated in its reporting abilities, but I am trying to do something straightforward It is a database application, one table only.

You can ignore this question, I figured it out, I never thought of sending an email as being a data connection, so I have just added a second submit action to email the form out after saving it to the database.
