Deploying InfoPath Forms to SharePoint There are two approaches to deploying InfoPath forms to SharePoint:   Pros Cons InfoPath Client | Publishing approach Power Users can deploy form Can only publish to ONE list at a time Central Administration | Forms Services approach Can deploy forms in an automated way (see Developing a InfoPath Solution using a Solution Package) Creates Content Type with form attached to enable multiple Lists to associate with it Manages versions of forms Can centrally manage Data Connections (UDCX) across multiple Site Collections and InfoPath Forms Can deploy InfoPath Form to Site Collections centrally Can Quiesce InfoPath Form to stop any more instances from being created at Farm level Requires Central Administration access or access to STSADM on server Require MOSS license [How to deploy InfoPath Form via InfoPath Client] [How to deploy InfoPath Form via Central Administration] Development Tutorials Developing a InfoPath Solution using a Solution Package Share InfoPath Forms Tool: Deploy InfoPath Forms as a WSP Solution by Srinivas Varukala Reading the XML from an InfoPath Form instance in a Form Library Creating a custom save function for InfoPath 2007 browser based forms by Aidan Garnish InfoPath Development Gotchas InfoPath Development Gotchas - The form template was published to one location and has been saved or moved to a different location InfoPath Development Gotchas - The server is not running InfoPath Forms Services InfoPath Development Gotchas - The following url is not valid Labels parameters Labels infopath infopath Delete Enter labels to add to this page:   Looking for a label?
