InfoPath Dev

I posted a question yesterday asking how to write data from a Sharepoint list into an Infopath form. The help I received was spot-on and I am most grateful. Unfortunately, I didn't think far enough ahead when I asked. Here is what I am trying to do. I have two fields (amongst several others) on an Infopath form: Supervisor Status and Corporate Status. This form is an accident report that requires two-stage approval. I want to open my new form from Sharepoint and have these two fields be blank. Workflow requests supervisor approval. Supervisor responds with Accept or Reject. If I open the Infopath form up at this stage, the status should be reflected in the corresponding field. Repeat for Corporate Approval. Workflow completes. Basically, I want the form to be able to be opened at any stage and have it show current and correct status. So far, I can't make this happen. With yesterday's help, I get data on the form but it doesn't seem to be specific to the document. Any ideas?

Well, you could use Forms-based workflow. Add a status field to the form that gets set on assignment. Use e-mail rules and submit for assignment. Add user roles, and open rules that switch to a read-only view if opened by somoene that is not currently assigned. All pretty straightforward, but don't expect SharePoint workflow to be easily customizable via InfoPath. For that you'll have to use SharePoint Designer and ultimately Visual Studio.

This is an old post but I am struggling with this same problem.  Need help please. I am using SP designer, infopath, and SP 2010
