Link to another InfoPath form

J

I have a form (form A) that I can open another form (form B) from. Forms A
and B reside in different Sharepoint libraries. While in form A I can choose
a link that opens form B. The link is the path to the form B template. It
opens fine but it opens outside of Sharepoint. When I save form B that was
opened from form A I am asked where I want to save the form. I need form B
to open within the form B library. Is there a way to set up the path so that
this will happen?

Thanks,

Joel

Best practice is to use a submit data connection rather than allowing the
user to adhoc save.

So in form B just setup a submit to SharePoint data connection and point it
at form library A or Library B which ever you need.
Then that is where the individual documents will be saved by default and
with the naming scheme you create.

No InfoPath technically opens within a library, I think you are referring to
where it gets saved or the form template is published. You would want to
publish from B to library B but you can link to it from anywhere.
