Database

[Cajun]

I have the following situation I would like to use Infopath for:

1 MS Access Database
1 Infopath form

I would like to be able to select clients from the database in a drop down
box in Infopath and have Infopath auto populate the text boxes for the
address, city, state, zip, contact, etc. that are stored in the database. Can
someone please help me with this. BTW Infopath ROCKS!!! keep up the good work

Scott,

I keep getting errors when I try to access any of the links. Here is an
example of the error from the download link:

Please let me know if there is another way to access this information or if
you have other suggestions.

Thanks

That's odd - I just tested the links and they all work fine. I am not sure
how these things come through in the Newsgroup but please be sure you see
the "complete" URL in the address bar when you copy/paste it in.

That seems to be what the problem with the links was. Once I copy/paste the
links are ok.

Thanks
