Sending a complete form to the customer

[Tran Chien]

I am new to Infopath. I sent sent my questionaire just designed in Infopath
to my customers (who do not have Infopath) but they could not open it. Could
you please tell me how can I make my questionaire ready to fill for my
customers? Thank you very much.

InfoPath 2003 requires all users to have the product installed on their machine. InfoPath 2007, when it releases, will integrate with a Forms Server which will allows users to view and edit forms using their browser. The browser-compatible forms will include a subset of features.

Thanks a lot. I am expecting InfoPath 2007 then. However, is there a simple
way to transform it to a webpage? (ASP.NET as said in
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011309641033.aspx). I finished
my questionaire in InfoPath 2003 already and I like to learn how to make
readable (no need for edition or filling out). If it is too complicated,
could you please tell me another software for designing questionaires? Thank
you again for your consideration.

The view you created for your questionaire is simply an XSL file. You can create a read-only view. Then you can use that read-only view's XSL file as a transform for the questionaire XML files using ASP.NET.

I believe that there is some slight modifications you might need to make to the XSL for this to work--or maybe not--you'll need to do a little research on it. This topic has been discussed several times before.
