I just downloaded the MS Office 2007 Beta 2 and mostely for InfoPath since i had plans for another project with it for engine builds but w/e. Has or Does anybody use this program for scouting. It seems like a great program with a lot of pontential for scouting. If you dont know what it is it is basicly a streadlined forms program for data collection. Does anybody have any experiance using it?

I am kinda new to the program but if you have used it and have any tips PLEASE share.

Hmm..never used it, but I'll take a look at it. I'm always looking for new and intuitive ways to do scouting :D . This year I got my scouts & AP Computer Science class to write a beastly scouting program that took in data from our scouting sheets & sorted it according to various fields.

I decided to make a prototype scouting interface based off of the 2007 asset manager template in infopath.
if you have infopath 2003 you can download the file here (http://filexoom.com/files/1601/Scouting%20Prototype2003.xsn) and preview it.
If you dont have infopath 2003 you can download the MS Office 2007 beta 2 from here (http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/beta/download/en/default.mspx). if you have any questions about overwriting you current Office install see this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?p=505913). Once you have Infopath 2007 you can download the 07 version of the file here (http://filexoom.com/files/1601/Scouting%20Prototype.xsn).
Feedback i appreciated. I just kinda found this program and it seemed to have a good use so let me know what you think.
