Infopath and VS.NET security

[Pradeep]

Hi,
I have just installed Infopath 2003 on a windows 2003 system. And, I am
pretty new to Infopath.

I have security issues during the development of Infopath through VS.net.
I figured it that there is some permission setting I need to set but don't
exactly know where.

If I publish and register the infopath form then I am able to access all the
system related files but when I try to run the infopath form from the VS.NET
it always throws me some Security Exception.

I want to set the permission during development for VS.net and Infopath such
that it should able to read and write from files from Infopath events when I
run it from VS.NET. Can you please help me with the same.

Thanks,
Pradeep.

you have to register the form by removing the publishUrl attribute in
the manifest and then run a vbs like this:

Dim objIP
Dim strPath

' Create a reference to the Application object.
Set objIP = CreateObject("InfoPath.Application")

' Register the InfoPath form template.
strPath = "C:\\projects\\infopath\\MBO\\manifest.xsf"
objIP.RegisterSolution (strPath)
MsgBox ("The InfoPath form template has been registered.")

Set objIP = Nothing

Can you tell me the significance of the publishUrl attribute?
