Issue that the hotfix package fixes
This hotfix package fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

You develop a Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 form that concatenates the text from several text boxes when the form is submitted. Then, you complete the form on a server that is running Forms Server 2007. If one of the text boxes is a multiline text box that contains empty paragraphs, nonbreaking spaces are saved in the concatenated text.

Additionally, an error message that resembles the following error message is logged in the SharePoint log:

w3wp.exe (0x2E6C) 0x5CC0 Forms Server Forms Services Runtime 8geb

Exception Unhandled exception when rendering form on postback System.Xml.XmlException: Reference to undeclared entity 'nbsp'. Line 85, position 998.
