Many businesses are turning to internal webs (intranets) to communicate with their employees. This communication can involve gathering user information, streamlining asset requests (such as requests for new hardware or software), sharing information across business processes, etc. One tool that is gaining popularity is Microsoft’s InfoPath, a program that allows users to create forms to gather this information, and share it among other users.

This presentation will introduce InfoPath to those who might not have seen it before or are starting to use it, and will include a step by step walk through of creating a simple form.
