Hi,
I have Infopath 2003 SP2. I am trying to submit data from a form to an
access databse, a document library on sharepoint, and in email at the same
time.
According to this document:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath/HA012073751033.aspx?pid=CH011097421033
it is possible to submit to multiple data connections with one submit button
but I can't seem to find those options. Any help would be great.
Thanks,
chuck

You can only submit to a database if your form is bound to the database, that
is, you used the option "New from Data Connection" when you created the form,
or if you are submitting to a web service that updates a database.
Once you've bound your form to the database, you've already got one data
connection. Then you need to create a data connection to submit to the
SharePoint library, and another one to submit to an email address. Go to
Tools > Data Connections, and create those two.
Once you've got all 3 data connections set up, you can add a button to your
form and create a rule with 3 actions on it:
1. Submit using a data connection + Main data connection (= to database)
2. Submit using a data connection + SharePoint data connection
3. Submit using a data connection + Email data connection
And you're done.
