    Opening new forms automatically is not supported

    I'm converting a 2007 filler form to 2010 Web and have 38 of these errors in the Design Checker, but clicking on them only tells me "Rules that open a new form are not supported in Web browser forms. You can achieve a similar effect by inserting a hyperlink that links to a new form." That's great, but I don't recall having any rules that open a new form and clicking this error doesn't give any clues as to where these rules are located. Any ideas on how to locate/fixe these errors?

    Has anyone seen this error before and know how to locate/fix it?

    I may have found it...news at 11:00 (for those old enough to understand that phrase).

    So - was there a rule that caused this? It wasn't just some design checker weirdness?

    We typically don't open other forms from within our forms, but in this particular form, I had buttons on a view that appears later in the process (not the ones I was working on). I just had to keep looking because clicking on the error didn't take me to where I needed to go and if I looked in the code, I wouldn't have known what to look for. Sooooo, yes, I had a button that used the "Open a new form to fill out" feature. It was a legitimate error, but worthless in helping me find it to address it.

    I do have a design checker error that prevents it from completing and possibly helping, but that's another story. Thanks all.
