Off-topic - Microsoft InfoPath

[Jennifer Randel]

Hi Gillian, 
I just heard about MS InfoPath a couple of weeks ago when one of our IT
guys saw a form that I'd created in Word and said, "You know... that
would be so much easier to do in InfoPath". 

He claims that if I create some databases in MS Access, I can populate
the same fields on many forms more easily and that if I want to, I can
track the data that is being input on the form fields. 

Of course, this means learning Access and InfoPath. I've just briefly
looked at InfoPath and it seems to be pretty straight forward -- I like
the way you just insert your fields on the page. 

I have only had a small amount of time to look at the software, so I'm
sorry I can't offer more advice about using it. I'd definitely be
interested to know what else you hear about it from others on the list.
