Hi Hilary,

I ended up using a dropdown list and then connecting their value's to switch view events on a button. So...when dropdown list value is equal to "View 2" switch to "View 2". Sorry it took so long to write back!

Thanks

Wow - 100 views - that seems like a really big form.

Can you just let them select the view from the built in ribbon controls? The object model only lets us change views on a button click - so even writing custom code won't do this ... unless you use the context changed event (and I'm not sure if this a browser form or not, but that isn't available to browser forms).

I'm using InfoPath 2010 and I'm having a problem trying to create a dropdown list to switch views. In addition to the "Back" and "Next" buttons on my form, I was first thinking about having a column of buttons on each page with the ability to click to any page by clicking the specific page button. It looks like I may have 100 views, so I can't really put 100 buttons on each page. If this dropdown list is not possible, does anyone have another suggestion that would work?

Thanks
