It was hard for me to understand how the InfoPath form services licensing work and how it is related to SharePoint server 2007 (MOSS 2007). I stumbled to find the link "Manage InfoPath Form Templates" in my local Development environment which is a Standard SharePoint CAL installation. Today I Googled it and managed to get few information regarding it.
- We know that InfoPath can be viewed in the browser without InfoPath Client.
- How? Well InfoPath Form Services help you to render the InfoPath form in the Browsers without InfoPath client installed in your machine.
- You can get the InfoPath Form Services in two ways (Assuming that you have a Standard SharePoint 2007 Installation or WSS 3.0 Installation).
- Buy a License for Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007 and install it in your SharePoint / (WSS 3.0) Server Farm. [This is the only option in case if you have the WSS 3.0 Installation]
- Upgrade your SharePoint Server farm to the Enterprise License. [Form Services Features are supported in Enterprise Version].
- Buy a License for Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007 and install it in your SharePoint / (WSS 3.0) Server Farm. [This is the only option in case if you have the WSS 3.0 Installation]
If you still want to get confused more J . Please refer to the below links that give you the information on the various SharePoint licensing favors.
