Sharepoint ItemAdding & ItemAdded issue

Question

I need to retrieve an Infopath File, which is displayed and filled in on a sharepoint webpage, and save it's data to a seperate DB. There are 2 events that fire once the form is submitted. ItemAdding and ItemAdded.

I know that I can not retrieve the file from the ItemAdding Event because it only gets saved after the ItemAdding Event.

But I want to redirect users to a different website once I have stored my values to the database, but I find no way to do this. I guess, the problem is that the ItemAdded event occurs, after/or at the same time as the user gets redirected to the webpage showing "The form has been closed".

How can I retrieve the values and redirect the user? Also, I am not allowed to attach code to the infopath form itself. This needs to be handled from Sharepoint.

Thank you

If you are redirecting within the SharePoint site you can include "source" as a query string parameter.

You also try a response.redirect in the OnClose event of the infopath form.
