Share InfoPath Forms Description

Share InfoPath Forms Tool will help you make those rigid InfoPath forms sharable in SharePoint. Deployment of InfoPath Forms was never an easy task. Unlike the traditional approach of installing as a form template using stsadm commands, this tool packages delivers a WSP easing deployment. How to use this tool: - Foremost point, this tool has to be executed by placing it on the server with SharePoint/MOSS installed on it. - Select all the published forms from your local drive or the network shared location. - If you don't want to publish few of those forms you can remove them off the list using the 'remove form' button below. - InfoPath forms may or may not have code behind. In our case all the forms has the code behind but we developed the code in such a way that all the forms point to the same DLL. So in the common settings panel in the right you have to select if your forms has code behind and if you know the path to the DLL. If not just allow the tool to find out the DLL. How does the tool find out the DLL? Read it below. - Firstly hit the 'Generate Features' button which will generate the 12 Hive/Root structure in the output folder within the project directory. You can check out those feature folders under Output/12/TEMPLATE/FEATURES/ - Next you hit the 'Create WSP' which will create the WSP for all those features and place the WSP file in the Output folder. - You can install the WSP right from this tool but that your choice. Once you hit the 'Install WSP' button it will prompt you for the site collection URL. - Deployment is one complete process and then the next step would be to activate each form from the site collection features page. So, to avoid that you can hit the 'Activate Features' button which will activate all those forms which are just installed. This could be a little bit time consuming and CPU intensive.
