Using InfoPath 2007 and Gantt Chart Views on InfoPath Forms Services

Hi,

I've created a form in InfoPath 2007 which tracks projects and
published it to a site with Office Forms Services.
I'm using a Gantt chart in one of the views and I've got irritating
issue that maybe you can help me with.

In other non-Gantt views you see an icon or title which when you click
on opens the form and renders in the browser with no problem.
Using a Gantt view in the main chart window, when you click on a title
of a project (or whatever field I've chosen as the Tile), rather than
rendering in the browser it takes me through to the "document
properties" page. Obviously, I don't want this, I need it to drill
into the particular form and render it in a browser.

Having to instruct users to not click on it and use the "icons lined
to document" is less than ideal ;-), especially when using the Gantt
view as the main project overview and should be acting as a portal
into the information below.

I can see why it's happening:
In the Gantt view the link to the item appears as:
http://mysite/projects/ProjectTracker/Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=7

In a normal views which do render:
http://mysite/projects/ProjectTracker/Project001.xml

Have you figured a way around this or is it purely behaviour by
design?

Thanks in advance

Ashley
