Ah, I see by Qazi's edit that the views aren't loaded at this point. You have your NewForm variable -- you might want to try adding a field to the form and then, in your code, set the value of the field. Set a rule on the field to switch views -- you can make that rule conditional, only set it when you open from code (thus, it has the value you set in your code), add a rule to clear the field after you switch the view. Not sure if it will work, but might be worth a try!

NewForm.View.SwitchView("View2")

EDIT: It seems views are not loaded uptill this point so can not be changed, however there might be some cool workaround which i dont know

New Form Different View

I have an IP 2003 form with C# code. I would like to add a button that will open up a new form in a different view.

I am using the following code:

XDocument NewForm = thisApplication.XDocuments.NewFromSolution(@"C:\Users\Lawson\Desktop\Switch View.xsn");

thisXDocument.View.SwitchView("View 2");

This code opens a new form, but it doesn't change the view in the new form.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
