Hilary,

After changing form's compability to "InfoPath Filler Form", I could work with "queryFields".

Thank you very much.

Yes. If you are using InfoPath 2010 or later, and you add a data connection to a SharePoint list or library, you should see query fields in the data connection.

Under Form Options > Compatibility you can check that your form is IP 2010.

Hilary,

Yes, I'm using InfoPath 2010. As far as I know I don't have my form's compatibility set to any earlier version.

Actually if I go to a SharePoint List, click on "Customize Form" and create a Data Connection to another list in InfoPath, I can see the queryFields.

However, I need to use a form which is created via InfoPath Designer 2010 (desktop app), would that be the problem? Does this type of form allow queryFields?

Query Fields for a SharePoint Connection are an InfoPath 2010 & later feature. Are you using IP 2010? If so, do you maybe have your form's compatibility set to an earlier version?

Hello,

I created a secondary Data Connection to my SharePoint list. However, when I select my Data Connection and click on "MyFields" group, it only shows "dataFields".

I really need the "queryFields" once I'm trying to filter some fields. Does anyone have any idea of how to get this group?

Thanks!!
