Why not use InfoPath then, if you have it?
You can wite an XML file for InfoPath and the new version (2007) of it will have web browser support so InfoPath wont be required on the users system.
hmm maybe i could, thing is i do not know infopath good enough.Quote:

3. I do not want my customers to have to purchase infopath and i do not have the manpower to create all the various forms for my customers, so they have to be able to create them themselfs.
hmmm I do not explain things wery well i'm afraid :S
The web based version of the infopath form is not as robust as the complete program viewer but its easier to distribute and you would only need one copy of IP to design the forms. There is a new opensource xml format with 2007 so perhaps you caould make some kind of designer for them and write out the compatible xml file and view in IE?
