New InfoPath content on the web

  • Article

I wanted to take a moment to recognize the great work of the Microsoft writers and editors who have been cranking out InfoPath content over the last few months. While we in the product team have clicked over into Office 14 mode, they have continued to serve customers by creating Office 2007 content – everything from video demos to highly technical developer content. Here’s some of the content that has been released since RTM. Thanks to Anneliese Wirth, Arsenio Locsin, Amy Miller, Anthony Labriola, Kelley Vice, Tonda Kiffin, David Longmuir, Roger Haight, and Mark Roberts for getting this information into the documentosphere!
