Run Managed-Code InfoPath Forms on Other Machines

Applies To

• Microsoft InfoPath forms
• Microsoft .NET 1.1 SP 1

Objective

Show how to configure client systems to open and run managed-code InfoPath forms.

Summary

The client systems need to have Microsoft InfoPath installed, and also need to have their .NET 1.1 Configuration settings configured to allow trusted InfoPath forms to run on the system.

Resolution

After installing Microsoft InfoPath 2003 SP 1, you need to update the client system's .NET 1.1 Configuration security settings. This can be done manually or using a special MSI package that Ascentn has developed to make this task easier.

To update the .NET InfoPath Managed Code Permission using the MSI, do the following:

1. Download and extract the InfoPathMCP.msi.zip file (see the attachments section below)
2. Install the InfoPathMCP.msi file (e.g. by double-clicking it).

OR:

To update the .NET InfoPath Managed Code Permission manually, do the following:

1. Launch Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Configuration
2. Navigate to Runtime Security Policy > Machine > Code Groups > All_Code > Trusted_Zone.
3. Right-click on Trusted_Zone and select Properties
4. Click on the Permission Set tab
5. Change the Permission Set to FullTrust
6. Click OK to complete the changes.
