Thank you Clay. I figured it would be best to leave them in there, but mentioned to a customer that I would look into this. Looking forward to the SP2007 and InfoPath!

Is there a way to populate data in an infopath 2007 form from a secondary datasource (in this case a sharepoint list) and then save the form so that the data is available when not connected to the datasource? The idea here is to create "snapshot" of the sharepoint list at a given point in time.

Then this selection will be saved or could be accessed later.
This is compatible with form services.
