However, you might look into using mutliple views on one forms instead of several XSN files if you are accessing the same data source.<br /><br />Just a thought.https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/5423.aspxMon, 06 Mar 2006 13:44:56 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:5423ShaulDar0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/5423.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=41&PostID=5423I 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.<br /><br />Can this be avoided or circumvented? Thanks.<br /><br />-- Shaul
