- Hi, and welcome to Microsoft InfoPath 2007 Essential Training. I'm David Rivers. InfoPath 2007 is the information gathering application that's part of the Microsoft Office system. So, if you need to gather information efficiently and reliably from a variety of sources, then you might be thinking about creating and deploying electronic forms. If so, InfoPath 2007 allows you to do just that. Now, not only can you design and create forms in InfoPath, but you can also use InfoPath as a client for filling in those forms and collecting the resulting data.
But InfoPath doesn't stop there. In this title, we'll delve deeply into the electronic form creation process, beginning with the basics, before we start exploring more advanced form options like adding controls or form security, connecting to data sources, and even publishing your forms using a variety of options like Xcopy, email, and SharePoint. Now, integration with other Office apps is an important feature of InfoPath, so we'll be exploring ways to connect to Microsoft Access data, for example, and import existing forms that you may have created already in Word or Excel.
So, without further delay, let's get started with InfoPath 2007 Essential Training.
Q: When trying to open a file in InfoPath 2007, I get an error that says to open the form in the location it was published to. It also says: “Forms that require the domain permission level contain features that access information on a network, such as data connections, linked images, and code.”
What is causing the error, and how can the file be opened?
A: This is a known issue with InfoPath. Instead of double-clicking on the file, right-click on the file and select Design. That will allow you to open the files.
