Preface


The goal of this book is to provide a developer s reference for application development for Microsoft InfoPath 2003, along with the underlying standards and various associated technologies that help to complete an InfoPath-based solution. This book shows how these different technologies work together and describes some of the practical patterns and practices that can be used to develop applications.

How to Use This Book

This book builds on itself as you move forward. If you have a good understanding of Office 2003, .NET Framework, and InfoPath, you may want to skip Chapters 1 and 2; you can refer back to these introductory chapters as needed.

Many of the topics covered in the text are fairly self-contained so that if you are looking for a quick reference on a specific topic, you should be able to find it quickly. Each chapter of the book examines a specific topic area in order to create an easy-to-find cross-reference of specific samples or how-to information.

This book is designed for the application developer and not the end user. If you are looking for specific end-user features, then this is not the text for you. If you re looking for information on end- user features, I recommend that you take a look at Special Edition Using Microsoft Office 2003 by Ed Bott. If you are a hard- core enterprise developer who is interested in creating distributed applications that use InfoPath, you are reading the right book.
