Description: Microsoft InfoPath is a software application for designing, distributing, filling and submitting electronic forms containing structured data. The product features a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) form designer in which the various controls (e.g. textbox, radio Button, checkbox) are bound to data, represented separately as a hierarchical tree view of folders and data fields.

Microsoft initially released InfoPath as part of the Microsoft Office 2003 family, but Microsoft InfoPath is now offered as a standalone product. Please see the forecast notes and build documents on the References Tab for additional information. Microsoft has announced that InfoPath`s final version is 2013 and will end support in 2026 when Office 2016 ends support.
