Question about emailing infopath forms to others?

[Eli]

How do I email an Infopath form to someone who doesn't have Microsoft Office
Outlook or InfoPath installed?

I have designed and published a form on Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 and
I'm trying to send it to a wide range of people. However, some of these
people do not have MO Outlook or InfoPath installed. What can I do so that
the form is viewable by these people?

Hi, maybe you can check the option "Send only the active view of the form
and no attachment" in the Data Connection Wizard, then the current view of
the form will appear in the body of the e-mail message.

I know that InfoPath 2007 supports a mode where the form can be filled
out and submitted via a web browser, without the user needing to have
InfoPath.

I have a need to mail users the equivalent of a view of the data, in
HTML, and Outlook 2007 is not available for use.

Would you please explain how I can do that?

Open InfoPath 2007, select Design a Form, and at the bottom of the
dialog, click the "Enable browser-compatible features only".
Then select the Blank template, and begin designing your form.
Remember to go into the IP 2007 Design Checker, select Change
Compatibility Settings, and verify that the checkbox for Design a form
template that can be opened in a browser or InfoPath is checked under
the Compatibility page.

Run a search in your favorite web search engine for "microsoft
infopath 2007 browser compatible forms" and you should see quite a
number of hits, including http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath/HA101693391033.aspx
which is an intro to the topic.
