Hi,
I have question regarding publishing forms to Sharepoint -

When a user creates a form and saves it in the WSS forms library how is this
version on WSS kept in synch with the database? Do I have to submit the form
to two places at once?

Thanks
Signature

Graham.

How is the "version on WSS" different than the metadata & file in the WSS
database ?

This U2U article shows how to extract data from a InfoPath form in WSS and
store it in a separate database:

Hi Graham,

I did not look at the link that KjellSJ provided so this may be duplicate
information but if you are trying to send the "data" in your form to a
database and then the form itself to a Sharepoint library you will simply
need to have 2 data connections - one for each location. However, instead
of using the built-in "Submit" functionality you would need to add your own
button to the form and then add a "Rule" to the button that executes a
"Submit" for each data connection.

If you need more details on this process just let me know.

Best Regards,
