Dealing with large forms

I am wondering what is the best way to deal with large forms. I have a form
that is 136 pages and I need to convert that to an InfoPath document. What
I'd like to do is split the form up and have some kind of "index" that would
link to all the subforms - similar to what you can do in Word with master
documents. Is there a way to do this in InfoPath or maybe in Sharepoint?

Thanks.

My concern with having multiple views is that the form is still very large. I
have another form which is 28 pages and when I try to open it - it takes
forever. I think having this large of a file would be a problem for the
users.

Also, this one form has appendixes which are actually other forms that have
already been created. I was hoping not to have to recreate them in this form.

Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Welcome to InfoPath hell :) Currently InfoPath is not a good option for
more than 15-20 pages/forms. Performance will drastically reduce and
same time if your form data size goes beyong 1.5 MB it will start
crashing for no reason.
