Microsoft SQL Server DataBase & InfoPath Form

[pedie]

Hi, I am tryng to conect InfoPath Form to Microsoft SQL Server DataBase. But I have no idea what "Microsoft SQL Server DataBase" actually mean

Does Microsoft SQL Server DataBase mean Access 2007 Database basically? I have the form build in to submit few lines of data from sharepoint and then once submitted throw the data to Database in network drive. Does it work this way? 'm kind of confused and dont know what to do....so please suggest, please advice [I have no prior expirience as such...]


Thank you soo much for helping.

Access is not a SQL Server database. I don't know much about sharepoint, though, so I'm not sure if you have an option to use Access here instead. Probably you can, but maybe with fewer bells and whistles to get the most out of sharepoint.

I'm kind of confused too, what are you trying to do?

SQL Server is, if you like, the next step up in Microsoft's database hierarchy.

You would probably find more information about both SQL Server and Sharepoint if you checked out forums that are specifically for those MS products.

I don't know any SharePoint forums but here's a link to an SQL Server one http://www.sqlservercentral.com/.

You could also try looking at Microsoft own forums, they seem to come up a lot when you search for SQL Server and Sharepoint together.

This may be of use to you and others. The site below deals with infopath forms and the different databases that can be used to store info along with sharepoint.
