You'll have to find a way to generate (concatenate) the URL you want.

First, go to your SharePoint site and open an existing form in the browser. Copy the URL.

Then analyze that URL - Microsoft has references on what each parameter means.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms772417(v=office.14).aspx

You'll have to create that URL, with the same format and parameters.

Hope this helps!

I have an infopath form attached to a list in SharePoint. I have a workflow associated with this list that alerts the user of new items added to the list and for them to review the item. Within the workflow, I have a link to open the infopath form, however, I was wondering if there was a way to do this only have the form open in the edit mode? My users are complaining about the extra step it takes to click edit item once they open the link. The form has multiple views, with the default view being a switchboard to choose which operation you would like to perform on the task. The users have to click on the link, click edit item, and then click on the option they want to perform with the form.

This is all done with InfoPath 2010 and SharePoint 2010.
