Submitting Per View

[Jason]

Here’s a good question... Lets say I have multiple forms, But I want to
centralize where the forms are. Here’s my current setup.

Several Infopath Forms
One MDB with Different tables per each form.

SO.... Would it be possible to have a different view for each form in the
same .XSN file? (Please note I am submitting to Access) and a submit button
on each view (the represents a form) that will only submit to the table,
corresponding to the correct form) that I want it to and not the whole
Infopath form? Does that make sense? Or will it have to be one big Table and
then several Queries for the info to be separated?

Hi Jason,

Yes you can do that. You control your Submit by code, using OnSubmitRequest
or you can even bypass entirely the built-in Submit feature and put your own
buttons where you call by code Web Services to submit what you wish to your
Access Table.

Hi guys,

I have a similar quest: I am submitting to Sharepoint Form Library without
having any code behing the form so far (which I would like to keep).
I have five Views which I submit all in one to Form Library 1. I would like
to have additionally only View 5 submitted to another Form Library. Is that
feasible without coding anything?
If not -> would someone be able to help me in creating the correct code? I
have barely written any code within Infopath.

Thanks,
Martin

Although you can have different forms in different views, IMHO, what I would
recommend is having each form in a separate XSN file if they are not related
(if the form is like a wizard for example, then it makes sense to have it on
one file).



For sharing the forms, you could use Windows SharePoint Services and have
site dedicated solely for the forms and everybody can access them from
there. Maintenance costs using this approach are lower.



HTH,

It's not just workflow. It's about the process.
