Question

I want to update/create a SharePoint List using InfoPath. So far I have the form created and when I select the ‘Submit’ button I have set the program to indicate if the form was submitted successfully and I do receive this message. However, when I look at the SharePoint List where I indicated the program where I want the list to reside, there are no updates.

I am pulling data from the database and the conditions are set and the data queried is correct. Everything else will be a breeze as soon as I can figure out how to connect InfoPath List to the SharePoint List. Every where I am looking indicates this is not possible and unfortuatly it is seeming this way. There has to be some kind of work around. I have only been working with InfoPath and SharePoint for the last few months (literally), I may need someone to walk me through this as no one else in the office knows these programs.

Answer 1

I think the simplest way is to make your InfoPath form call a web service. In the web service you can do whatever you want; create a list, create a list item or any other thing.
