I've built a small form and want it to submit to both a database and as an
email -- but the .xml forms it generates can't be opened by the person
receiving the form. I understand that this sometime can be worked around by
saving the attachement locally and then opening it, but 1) when we try that
we get some complicated error about missing templates 2) the users who will
be receiving this attachment are not tech savvy. Really, all that needs to
happen is for the text of the form to appear in the body of the email, or if
they must be in an attachment they have to be easily opened. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

How did you send it as an email and to a database?

He would have done it submitting using rules and custom code, the only way to
have multiple submits

Cheers Adam

Can either one of you guys give me the custom code that you used to do the
multiple submits. I am new to C#.net but trying to learn it. Thanks!

If the user cannot open the form template, ie they do not have rights to the
location, they cannot open the form as generally the form has to check back
against the template.

Solution, put the template in an area everyone has read access to.  This way
the form can check back with its template and it will open up fine as an
attachment

The form does live on a shared drive -- where would I find the template?

Does anyone know how to explain this to me? I'd love to get this buttoned up
today.
