Steps to reproduce this problem

1. Design a blank form template in InfoPath 2007.
2. Publish the form template as a document library to a server that is running InfoPath Forms Services. Assume the form template is published to http://server/subsite1.
   
   Note server is the placeholder for the server that is running InfoPath Forms Services. subsite1 is the placeholder for the subsite name.
3. Locate the library, complete a form, and then save the form back to the library as Form1.
4. Return to the library, and then select Site Settings in the Site Actions list.
5. In the Look and Feel column, click Title, description, and icon.
6. In the Web Site Address section, change the URL name from http://server/subsite1 to http://server/subsite2.
7. Return to the library, and then click Relink Documents in the View list.
8. Open Form1 in InfoPath.
9. Return to the library, and then refresh the page. In the Template Link column, the URL changes from http://server/subsite1/LibraryName/Forms/template.xsn to http://server/subsite2/LibraryName/Forms/template.xsn.
   
   Note LibraryName is the placeholder for the library where you publish the form template.
10. Close Form1 in InfoPath.
11. In the Relink column, click to select the check box to relink Form1.
12. Click Relink Selected Documents. In the Template Link column, the URL now changes back to http://server/subsite1/LibraryName/Forms/template.xsn.
