MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / August 2007InfoPath as front end to database
I am new to InfoPath and thought it might solve a problem our company has. We need a quick way to complete an invoice form (established by the corporate office and cannot be varied) which I have been able to replicate in InfoPath 2003--no problem with that. I have set it up with my database of invoice information and the InfoPath form can be used to enter information into the database, and when I fill it with sample data, it looks great. However, I am missing something basic here---How do I get the InfoPath form to fill AUTOMATICALLY from a record in my database??? Am I trying to make it do something that is impossible for it to do? Thanks in advance for any help. Shepherdess Hi, You want to fill data when the form is opening, take the data connection to the db and query and fill the data in Onload event. I hope this will help for you.  Signaturek.Ramana Reddy http://www.GGKtech.com > I am new to InfoPath and thought it might solve a problem our company has.
