Hi,
I've been trying to find a way to start a workflow from an infopath form, but it doesn't look like it's possible without coding and I'm limited to SPD and IP. the next best thing I could come up with is having a new yes/no field with a default no. The a button that will change the value to yes. From SPD I will have a workflow that says "If Field equals yes, send email, end workflow". Because I want to have this workflow start in the middle of an item's life-cycle I'm having trouble with how to start the workflow. If I use when the item is modified, it will just sit there as running until the field gets changed to yes correct? I've been told that I shouldn't have too many active workflows on an item, so this will be workflow number two, on a list of 3-5K items. Is there a better way to have this workflow start? is there a way I don't know about in infoPath to begin a workflow?
Thanks
Daniel
