How do I submit form data to a SharePoint?

[Brian Pajak]

I am trying out InfoPath and the SharePoint service. I can create a simple
form and link it with a datasource which is my SharePoint form library. When
I go to the SharePoint I can see the form I created, but when I fill out the
form and submit the data to the SharePoint the form never gets saved there.
I make sure the filename is unique because I build it based on the username
and the date the form is submitted. Can someone tell me what I may be doing
wrong? I want to be able to fill out the forms and have them saved in the
SharePoint, so I can merge the form data. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Did you publish the form to a Sharepoint form library and then use the "Fill
Out This Form" menu button in the form library? By default when you do this
the XML file generated will be saved into that form library.

You won't "see" the form solution (XSN) in the form library, only the XML
documents generated when it is filled out. The solution (form template) is
actually located at
