Take a look at this and see if it might do what you need: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/infopath/archive/2010/06/03/how-to-pass-querystring-data-into-an-infopath-form.aspx

It involves having the form in a web part in SharePoint, but allows you pass in a query string parameter w/out code....

How to Pass a list items URL as an argument into a Form

Hi guys, First off I want to say thank you. I’ve never posted before but I’ve found a lot of great information on this site over the last few years. I have a question that I’ve been unable to find a solution for and was hoping someone could offer a suggestion. I have a form setup that takes a Unique ID field then queries a list and pulls back data from that specific list item. What I would love to do is instead of having to search the entire list for that Unique ID, take the URL for that specific list item and use that somehow in a data connection to quickly pull back the data. Now that my query list is growing I’m finding the performance is taking quite a hit and I have the ability to save off the URLs for the list items to use I just don’t know how (If I can) pass that URL as an argument to the form to load the data for that specific item. I’m unfortunately unable to add any code to the form so I’d have to find a solution that would be out of the box. Any ideas or suggestions you may have would be really appreciated.

Thanks, Dave
