InfoPath to the rescue!

As a developer in a small business group, I am not part of the company's large technology group. Therefore I don't usually have access to some of the resources to deploy applications like a web server (it is usually not in the budget). However, I do have access to a SharePoint. You can deploy "webform-like" pages using InfoPath and deploy them to to SharePoint.You can use textboxes, buttons, most of the controls found on a webform. You can even embed Excel worksheets or graphs.


I found a interesting post here here that simulates creating tabs on an InfoPath form. This is done by adding buttons to the top of the form and formatting them so that they appear as tabs. When you click on a button it appears to change tabs when in actuality you're changing Views.
