I have not worked with cookies but are they accessible from a file path? Will they always have the same name?

If so then your form could load the XML file.

Just setup a data connection in your form to recieve from XML and navigate to the file.

You can pass variables to InfoPath on Open.

Or once the form is open, which can be accomplished by the user accessing a hyperlink to the form, then you can pass variables through the object model as well.

Another option is saving the data in a xml file for the InfoPath form to consume on load or access later or use a database to pass the data.

You want to pass variables into an InfoPath form? So move values from another application into InfoPath?
