Are you using SharePoint? SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise edition?
If yes, your users do not need to have InfoPath installed on their machine. All is required is to enable InfoPath Form Services in the Central Administration Web site and in the document library settings specify open forms in browser.

I would create a powershell script and have it run every few minutes. Powershell would basically look for newly created record in SharePoint Library or List (you can probably create column "Status" and set default value to "New" and change it to "Processed" after creating AD account with powershell).
Here is a good link on Powershell for SP 2010

Another way to do it (if "Open with Explorer" works for you)
In the form library, on the ribbon navigate under "Library Tools" to the "Library" tab. In the "Connect & Export" section find "Open with Explorer". Depending on your screen resolution the full label may not be displayed; the icon looks like a folder with an arrow pointing to a computer ...

To be clear I don't want to "link" values from list, I want the values
copied into this table
For this, avoid creation of Infopath form template of compatibility/type "Sharepoint List Form"

or, at least, Main Data Connection, which is created by either:

Probably one should use references from Microsoft itself on MS products.
So, Microsoft source tells:
"Workflow form changed from InfoPath form to aspx form
For a workflow based on SharePoint Designer 2013 (WF4) and Windows Azure Workflow, SharePoint creates aspx forms instead of InfoPath forms that were created by SharePoint Designer 2010 (WF3.5) ...

Calculated value in Infopath is control, OOTB (out of the box), i.e. just visual container. Controls can be bound or not to data fields (and vice versa, it is possible to have data fields without there visual rendering).

If you are using a browser-based form you can only edit the form code using C# .NET or VB .NET. In InfoPath 2010, there should be a "Developer" tab where you can edit the code (using the "Code Editor" button). If you have to use Javascript, you could also try to call the script indirectly, using the method here:

Make sure the content type is not set to be read-only. If it is read only, SharePoint will not allow you to change the field order or customize the InfoPath form.
Navigate to the list using the content type and go to list settings from the ribbon
Click on the content type in question (if you can't see them allow management of content types in the list's ...

Old post, but better answer. It seems like you are converting a paper form into an Infopath form -- this paper form had a box asking 'How many widgets?' and you want the value entered there to dictate how many serial numbers you offer the user...
Why not do it this way -- use a repeating table or repeating section to gather any number of serial numbers... ...

Infopath's built in Username() function returning “i:0#.w|Domain\UserName” instead of just UserName?
While researching this myself, I found a solution that might be a bit better than a substring. You might want to try the following:
SPClaimProviderManager manager = SPClaimProviderManager.Local;
if (manager != null)
{
if (SPClaimProviderManager.IsEncodedClaim(encodedString))
username = manager.DecodeClaim(encodedString).Value;
else

well, state service just use SQL DB to store user session data so Guids are most probably refers to current User session. Lock on a SQL table can appeared after too many requests at the same time. Probably your State Service is a performance bottleneck for a bigger farm? Could you please enable SQL profiling on State DB and check its performance and locks?

Each InfoPath form type has a different purpose and different restrictions related to that purpose.
There are (in general) three types of forms
List Form
Web Form
Filler Form
First I will talk about what the restrictions are for each, and then how to use them
List Form: A list form is a SharePoint specific form meant exclusively for use to replace the ...

Make sure that InfoPath Forms Services (SharePoint Server 2010) are configured (in Central Administration under Farm Administrators SharePoint group account)
For a library form check Sharepoint workbook opening in Microsoft InfoPath Filler 2010 rather than Microsoft InfoPath Designer 2010, for a Sharepoint List Form check this my answer

I had a similar issue with "You are not authorized to perform the current operation" when publishing to a HTTPS destination. The form template was set to Full Trust (Central Admin Administrator Approved). However InfoPath wants to "see" that URL and confirm it's a valid destination.
I opened the HTTPS website in IE. By clicking "View Certificate" then ...

A bit late, but since the other answer was not terribly helpful, you can reference other classes and code in a separate strong-named assembly and include a reference to it in your project. The form's assembly may be fairly rigid, but you can always design around it. Build your other functions/classes in a separate VS project, deploy it as a SP solution, and ...

When designing the form on the "Page Design" tab select each view and click Properties
Then deselect "Show on the View menu when filling out this form" (yes the name of the setting is a bit odd, but that due to how it was displayed in InfoPath 2007)

I did not understand what is "multiple value lookup column from another field". I understood, also having consulted your previous question, that you want Multiple-Selection List Box on lookup field.
It works for me. If you want help in particular problem, you should provide more details and in more clear terms how to reproduce it.

This is always a challenge in SharePoint and even if they do "open" the document you never truly know if they actually "read" it. This is akin to signing a contract, or accepting pages and pages of ts and cs (like on the IPad). Most people just scroll through them and click "I agree".
Having said that - we develop a product called DocRead for SharePoint ...

No, it is not possible - you will have to store (add/remove) the attachements in a different document library. You'll have to do the adding/removing yourself - either with custom code (in your InfoPath Form or better in a custom WebService) or OOTB WebServices.
Here is a good article about the Top 10 Questions about InfoPath File Attachements. See Point ...

Update:
I believe I answered 2 questions:
the question in the title:
"Can an InfoPath 2010 dropdown be populated by a SP List column with multiple choice values?"
A: impossible in its original formulation
"I have a list with a column that accepts multiple values (a "choice" type with checkboxes) and wish to display the same available choice options ...

In the form options, you need to specify that your location in the form is a promoted field. Once it is promoted, it will display in the document library and you can sort/filter views based on that as needed.
