Infopath 2007 and outlook 2003 question??

[UMAN]

We created some browser enabled InfoPath 2007 forms and stored them on our
MOSS site. When a user fills out a form they click submit and it sends the
results to a email distribution list. The individuals who are receiving the
emails are seeing the following:

1. Outlook 2007 users see no issues.
2. Outlook 2003 and 2000 users get the results of the form submission but
the results are not rendering properly.

Is this because of incompatibility between Infopath 2007 and older versions
of outlook?

Do the users who receive the emails need to have outlook 2007 to render the
results of the form submission correctly?

Thanks!!

Yes Outlook can render the embedded views a bit better.

Typically what i do is create another view in the form specifically for the
email and put a hyperlink in it so that every one who gets the email can use
the hyperlink to pull up the form in a browser.

The users who are getting the email are not getting a form to fill out. They
are just getting the results of a submission. Are the results not rendering
correctly in outlook 2000 and 2003 because of incompatibility in between
infopath 2007 and outlook 2003/2000?

 

[Clay Fox]

Correct, only Outlook 2007 has the ability to actually render the form in
Outlook itself. The others need to open the form seperately.

So for a user to see the browser based email from Infopath 2007, they need to
upgrade to outlook 2007 then?

That would be correct.
