Getting data OUT of a custom Groove form

[gwilou]

I have never actually created a custom Groove form, but I am wondering what
the options are for getting data out? Can I export to XML like I can in
infopath? Or maybe the solution for getting data out of Groove IS infopath
integration in Groove 07' .

I am creating custom eLearning and I need to have multiple content entry
points (using forms) that I can then get XML data out of for use in eLearning
applications built in Flash. Is this possible? What are my options if any?

TIA

Gwilou -

Groove has some (rather limited) export formats. File -> Export all
Entries from the forms tool main menu.

There are other options. For our customers, we've built utilities for
exporting using Groove Web Services.

What sort of export options can Infopatterns help me with? Is it possible to
create a form that my subject matter experts (SMEs) can enter content into
and then have feedback built in that might work something like Words "Track
Changes"? Then once content reaches the "finalized mode" have the option to
export it out as XML data that can be used in my Flash eLearning applications?

Hi gwilou -

We've worked on something somewhat akin to that for one organization.
Drop me an email - (e-mail address removed)

Mark,

the email address you supplied keeps bouncing back to me. I have added you
to my Groove contacts (found your VCG on the infopatterns site) . If you
would like, we can continue our conversation through Groove.
