Infopath 2007 and Site directory from Sharepoint

[RJ]

Can someone point me to the best article that I can use to learn how to have
a drop down list or to that affect that contains URL's from sharepoint parent
site that contains child sites. When they click on that child sites url
link, it will submit the form to that site. Any ideas? what is the
difficulty on achieving this. A project in mind that I would like to learn
and I am a newbie. Thanks.

I don't know of any articles about the specific solution you are after, but I
don't think you can achieve this without writing code and the code will not
be easy to write. You will have to use the SharePoint object model to find
the URLs to the child sites of the parent site, then programmatically
populate a data source that is bound to the drop-down list box with the URLs
of the child sites, and then finally dynamically submit the form to a form
library on the selected child site by using the technique described in this
article:

.. Another option would be to use a web service instead of the SharePoint
object model to retrieve the URLs you require.

Again, it is not an easy task...
