    It 's essentially a database application,and users can add,delete,query or update records.
    one requirement is as following:
    users can fill in the form and then submit.
    the data will then be writen to a database(before written in,are there any places for coding my business logic?)

    is there a demo?
    thanks!
    any suggestion will be appreciated.

    It may be suitable, but it depends on all the requirements.  This can be done, and the best practice is to use web services between InfoPath and the DB.
