The Open method can only be used to open a form; it cannot be used to open a form template. To create a form from a form template, use the NewFromSolution method. To create a form based on an existing form, use the New method.
When you use the Open method, the specified form opens in InfoPath and is ready to be filled out.
Examples
In the following example, the Open method of the XDocumentsCollection collection is passed the URI of an existing form, and the form is opened and its associated _XDocument object returned:
XDocument document;
document = thisApplication.XDocuments.Open(@"C:\MyForm.xml", 1);
