Point 1, you can create the fields on the form and do your binding yourself. It proposses an repeating section as it expects a list , you are right

Point 2: As in SharePoint the status is saved also as an integer, you get the integer back.
But you can create a rule, when Status is numberX then set fields values to Approved etc

Thanks a lot.

I got this code working, but I have two quick questions.

#1. How come when I go to Design Tasks->Data Sources, then select my receive connection, if I try to drag a column from onto my form, it puts it in a repeating section?

I believe this is because it is possible that since I am pointing to a list, I could have multiple values coming back. Since I am only receiving data from one instance, shouldn't it just show up as a single instance?

#2. When I made my rule, I was hoping to match the workflow status against the text "Approved", but it seems to be returned as an integer. Is there a way to match the string and not the integer?

Thanks

Is there a way to create an infopath form and use a combo box as the state in a three state workflow?
