will be looking forward to meeting you

0Hi,02br
02br
00Which one or ones are right? When do we use each of them?02br
02br
01i001. I will be looking forward to meet you.02i02br
02br
01i002. I will be looking forward to meeting you.02i02br
02br
01i003. I am looking forward to meet you.02i02br
02br
01i004. I am looking forward to meeting you.02i02br
02br
00I think that depends on whether you are looking at 'to' as a preposition or 'to meet' as an infinitive. Are they both correct?02br
02br
00How about this?02br
02br
00I01i00 like playing chess.02i02br
02br
01i00I like to play chess02i02br
02br
00For the above, are we looking at the choice of looking 'to play' as an infinitive acting as a part of a noun and 'playing chess' as a noun phrase? 0-
