    Sharing workflows between forms?

    I may well be porting a lot of currently Word 2003 forms to InfoPath. Some of these will share the same workflow e.g.

    submit to manager 

    if manager approves send it on to admin & update user

    admin notifys user of decision

    I'm OK with doing this in InfoPath but it will take a lot longer duplicating the same workflow for multiple forms. I would use SharePoint Designer but we need the workflow logic to be contained in the XSN form, not on the SharePoint server in case we ever want to move the forms to a network share instead. Is there any way to share workflows between forms o copy it between forms?

    I would create the basic framework, the workflow components, etc.

    And then save this as a sort of template for the others.

    Then use this template, rather than starting with a blank form, and add the particulars for each unique form and then do a save as.

    That way you do not have to start over each time just focus on the unique aspects.
