Can anyone suggest a good book about how to go about integrating Access with
InfoPath?  I have been trying to figure out how to get my form to submit and
so far it seems to be impossible, at least I haven't really been given an
answer that has worked yet.  And I still don't understand why you can't use
one form to submit to multiple relationship tables.?  I made sure that I had
all the correct datatypes in my access db, nothing that wouldn't allow you to
submit.  It is just that I have a one to many relationship from what InfoPath
is telling me.

Anyway, I appologize, I am getting frustrated with it, so thought that it
might be good to read a book on it.  So any answers or suggestions you have
would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Misty,

Powering Office 2003 with XML by Peter Aitken has one chapter (13) about
Connecting Access and InfoPath.  However, I don't think that it will go in
depth enough for what you want....

You may want to look into Web Services to isolate your db from your form.

Thank you Franck,  I will definitely check that book out.  I may be able to
get some more info for other things that I am trying to do as well.  I am
also going to look further into Web Services.  I had originally requested it
for this project, but was told that at this time it would not be possible.  
Hopefully, with some new info I will be able to convince them otherwise. :-)  
I don't know to much about Web Services, do you need any additional software
other then the basic internet explorer and server access?  I suppose I can
probably look up that info in past postings too. :-)

Thanks again,

Misty

Hi Misty,

You will need Visual Studio .Net (2003 or the new 2005).  You can write Web
Services in C# or VB.Net (same languages you can use behind InfoPath if you
install the toolkit).
