Hi,

I need to build a motor insurance form to collect vehicle owner details &
vehicle details from clients to generate a request for quote form to
insurance providers and send the quotations to clients.

Also i want to link-up the data collected to access database for future
renewal purposes.

I understand that infopath 07 can be used with access 07 to collect require
informations. However not all the clients and providers have outlook 07 &
infopath 07 installed on their computers.

Are there any ways to publish the form to non-infopath users and establish a
data connection to access database for update and enquiry purposes when they
submit the forms back to us?

Hello

You can design Browser enabled Infopath forms using Infopath 2007 that can
be opened in a browser by users who doesnt have Infopath installed.

Unfortunately Access is not supported for browser forms. This would require
SQL Server or user code to interact with the Access database.
