I am setting up an Infopath form that will submit to an access dbase. I want
users to be able to submit the form in Infopath, but I don't want them to be
able to open or read the access dbase. What's the best way to set this up?

Hi Frank D,

For one second, I wondered if I was responding to myself!

You could use a submit WS to do this. Have a series of controls on your
form (not linked to your DB), and add a WS to submit to Access.

What do you mean by "submit WS"?

Hi Frank,

In Tool / Submitting Forms / Enable Submit commands and buttons you can
select a Web Service - click Add (or pick an existing one if you already have
one).
