InfoPath file attachment size limit

It is easy to upload documents to a SharePoint document library using SmartObjects.  I recently ran into a problem when attempting to upload large documents that were attached to an InfoPath form via a SmartObject 'Create' method.  The request was failing due to the large file size of my file (> 5 MB).  The fix lies in either the machine.config file or the web.config file of the MOSS server.  You'll need to increase the 'maxRequestLength' value in order to upload larger files.  Ex:

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="8192" />
