and implementing XML-based forms. InfoPath is a desktop application that comes
as a part of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010. When you install InfoPath
2010, two applications are installed: InfoPath Designer 2010 and InfoPath Filler
2010. InfoPath Designer 2010 is used to design InfoPath form templates, while
InfoPath Filler 2010 can be used to fill out InfoPath forms. InfoPath forms are
meant to replace their paper-based counterparts.
