Multiple Forms: Single SharePoint Location

M

I have three InfoPath forms on SharePoint that I would like to submit
to a single SharePoint library. How can I view fields from each form
in the common SharePoint library? For example, I have the field
Job_Name that is a key on each form (the field is tied to different
Access tables on the back-end). When I submit the form to the common
SharePoint library, I want to be able to see the Job_Name tied to each
form in my display view. Is this possible? If I create a new field in
the SharePoint library with the same name, the field remains blank.

Thanks for the help,

Chip

Hi

When you use piblishing wizard in Infopath 2007(I assume) you get choice
of which fields you want to displayed as columns in infopath library.

Never worked on Infopath 2003 so no idea.

I have the choice to select the fields I want displayed in SharePoint
(and I am selecting and publishing these fields). The problem I run
into is when I submit the for to a library that is different that the
main/default SharePoint library for that form. SharePoint is no longer
recognizing the columns I want defined.

As far as I know this is not possible - only one template can be selected as
the template, and then the file properties.xfp (Forms folder) defines how to
display the fields from the one template. But this file doesn't seem to be
easily manually updated (plus it changes every time you publish the form to
the sharepoind library).
Two ideas:
a) create one XML form but with different views for each purpose
b) create several lists and somehow connect them on the SharePoint (no idea,
how)
