    Searching a SharePoint list from inside InfoPath

    Is it possible to add a search field in InfoPath 2010 that would search a SharePoint 2010 list?  Example, I have a form that has a data connection that pulls data from a SharePoint list in a drop down field.   Because the drop down can be large, I want to be able to search that same list instead of scrolling through.  Is this possible somehow?

    If you're using SharePoint 2010, you can use queryFields.  In the list data connection, there should be query fields and data fields.  If you enter criteria into the query fields and query that data connection, it will only return the data that's matches that criteria in the data fields.  The search is limited to only equal operators, but hopefully this will get you started.
