    Many columns do not appear on the data connection wizard when you try to make a data connection in InfoPath, such as calculated fields also. You can make a hidden column and write the value of the workflow column on this hidden column in your workflow, and retrieve it in your data connection.

    I am interested in the method for using the calculated column..can you explain?   I am told there is a way to get through webservices but I may never get that information from the system admin..;-)

     

    thank you
