Publish to SharePoint Server
Your form is complete and ready to be published. You'll be publishing your results on a SharePoint site, so follow these steps:
Launch SharePoint.
Open your file.
Browse to the form library where you want to place this information.
Double-click the URL and use Ctrl+C to copy it.
In a moment you'll want to paste this information into a wizard. But, in the meantime, let's go back to InfoPath to publish the form:
On the File menu, click Publish to launch the wizard.
In the wizard, click Next.
Select To a SharePoint Form Library and click Next.
Click Create a New Form Library.
Use Ctrl+V to paste the copied URL into the SharePoint Site Location field. Then click Next.
Type a name and description for your new form library and click Next.
Click Add to see field names.
Double-click the field names that you want to include as properties; that is, as fields you want to show up in the forms on SharePoint.
Click Finish and Close.
Your form template is now published, ready for your colleagues to enter their information as soon as your email tells them where it can be found.
