Publishing SharePoint List InfoPath Form to a new location

By
Needed to move it from Dev to Production. File > Publish > Export Source Files. Close InfoPath Go to folder where Source Files are saved, open Manifest.xsf.  Find all instances of the URL and replace them with the new URL - there should be five. If you have secondary data connections, update those also. I use Notepad++ and “replace all” so it just takes a second.  Save the manifest.xsf file and close. Now right click on the manifest.xsf and select Design to open it back up in InfoPath.  Click on File >Publish and verify the URL is correct in the “Publish form to a SharePoint List” section”.
