InfoPath 2007

[Need_to_Know via OfficeKB.com]

Hi to all you sharePoint & InfoPath users out there. Help?

I need to create an InfoPath form, for travel request etc... but instead of
entering the same data ll the time, i want the form to recieve data from a
data source (database maybe or whereever it is stored). so certain fields can
be populated and the rest entered as necessary.

How do I create / store a data connection file on SharePoint, that the
InfoPath form can retrieve data from? I have stored some info from the
databse in an excel file but i keep ketting this error message saying it's
not set up properly.

any help, will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
