Access - Customizee Update Data via Email

[Lar Chen]

I have set up an infopath form that will send the applicable people emails to
update existing information for their respective entries. I am trying to
format the look of the email, mainly formating the boxes and resizing and
deleting some of the standard help wordings in the email. Do i have to
recreate the form in infopath and then relink it to the database? Or is there
an easier way to customize the email?

Please help!

This is a group for Microsoft Access support. I'd suggest posting in
an Infopath forum.

Tony,

I'm sorry if i wasn't being clear. I had set up the infopath form using
access's collect data wizard. As i'm going through the wizard, i selected the
option to set up an infopath form as oppose to a html form. I'm trying to
collection information that updates existing database information such as the
status of the work, updated deadline etc. However, i don't like the way the
email is laid out. Is there a way to format this through access? or is this
still an infopath question?

No idea. I've never used the email collection wizard so I have no
idea. Let's see if anyone else jumps in.
