A co-worker in my organization has built an InfoPath form that is not
connected to a table. The management wishes to capture the data in this form
to a database.
I have been given this task, so I built a table to store the entities. When
I wen into the form to add a connection, the SUBMIT does not offer a link to
an Access database or SQL Server....ONLY the receive.
How can I  link this already built form to a table.
Thank you.

Hello Ed

How did you build the Infopath form? Did you build it using dataconnection
or trying to add data connection after you build the form?

If you are adding the data connection after building the form you wont have
the option to submit to DB. You have to use a webservice in this case to
submit to the DB

I hope it will help you
