How to Publish IP2003 form on a portal with VS2005 C# code

[zullu]

Hi,
I have a InfoPath 2003 Form. In order to write my own code while the form
loads, I have created a Visual Studio 2005 project for InfoPath. While
creating this project it refrenced my original fom "DataLoad.xsn" and has
created its own "DataLoad.xsf" within the VS project.
I have put some code and compiled the VS project successfully. Now I need to
publish this form to a Form Library on the SharePoint portal on my server, so
that many users can open and fill out this form. (I understand that users
need to have InfoPath 2003 on their machine).

Now my questions are:
#1. Do I publish the "DataLoad.xsf" file instead of the original
"DataLoad.xsn" which I used to publish earlier?
#2. What is Trust level that the form needs to have to be accessible within
the INTRANET zone?
#3. Do I still need to digitally sign my form?
#4. How do I eliminate the reference that is getting stored in the form,
which is pointing to my local machine path from where I tried to publish the
form. (I tested this by opening the Form from another user's machine- which
gave an error something like "cannot open the form from MYLOCATION."
Here MYLOCATION is the location of the form on my local PC.)

Can anyone Help me to resolve any of these issues.
Thanks !!
zullu.

Hello Zullu

Here are the answers to the querries

1) You need to Publish using the dataload.xsf
2) If the form is used only in the Intranet then you can set the trust level
to Domain
3) You do need to digitally sign the form if the form is not full trusted
4) You change the publish URL pointed to the Old location in the manifest.xsf

When you publish the form using the dataload.xsf the 4th point will be taken
care of
