    Copy controls between forms, with bindings?

    Reply Contact
    I want to have multiple forms (.xsn files) with shared "elements", e.g. sections with controls on them. However, when I copy a control from one form to another the data bindings are lost. This seems to happen even if the data source is the same, e.g. same SQL Server database.

    Can this be avoided or circumvented? Thanks.

    Shaul, I don't think this can be avoided. However, you might look into using mutliple views on one forms instead of several XSN files if you are accessing the same data source.

    Just a thought.
