Hi,
I am currently building a InfoPath form which will communicate with a
database. This form will be submitting and receiving data to and from the
database. A couple of weeks ago, I read a article in September's issue of
MSDN magazine which was edited by Nancy Michell. She stated that it would be
better to have a webservice in-between a database and a InfoPath form.
Unfortunately she didn't state why this approach would be better than having
the form directly access the database. However she did state that the direct
access should be avoided whenever possible. Why I don't know. Could someone
please elaborate on this topic for me?
