Populating a form with information from Insight Manager

We are moving forward with using WSS for our document management solution.
Presently we have a homemade site that recives information from the Insight
Manager DB automatically using Perl. Serial #, Make Mode, etc.. are the
things we collect.

Is is possible to create a form, that once the node name is typed in the
form can query insight manager and fill in the known information into the
appropriate text fields.

Thanks,

Shaun

By builiding a Web Service front end, InfoPath can interact with any number
of custom back ends. It's also quite easy to tie web service data into the
form, and using Rules, query for web service data when a field's value
changes. VS and DocLiteral web services plus InfoPath should be an easy
answer for you on this one.
