Hi,

I am not aware of any way to use an Excel form in InfoPath.

You could create an InfoPath form template to access the XML from
Excel, but that would depend on a clear idea of the permutations of
structure in such XML.

Once you have the XML data in InfoPath, what do you intend to do with
it?

Thanks for your answer.
I would like to publish these forms on a sharepoint site.

What is the purpose of converting Excel to Infopath if you just want to
publish the files to Sharepoint? Why not just upload the Excel files to a
Sharepoint document library directly?

What are you trying to accomplish by "using excel form in infopath"?

I have to use infopath for my project. we want to show what you can do with
infopath.
I'll do my forms directly in infopath.
