I want to open an infopath form via URL with input parameters, when the form opens I would like to use the input parameter to query a secondary datasource and return values to populate part of the form.

For instance I have an inventory control infopath form.

A user on the website has a list of URLS of inventory items.
These urls will open a single Infopath form, and pass in the ID of the invetory item.
like this
the id=87652 is the ID of the inventory item in the database.
I have a webservice with a method that will return data from the databases when supplied with the ID of the item.

When the form opens I want to pass the ID from the URL querystring into the webservice to return the row of data for that item.
And when that is done bind the data to various fields on the form.
thanks
