Is it possible to hyperlink to a separate view using InfoPath instead of
having to click on the view menu, click on the view then click on the lead to
return to the main view?

Hi Dianah,

Why dont you try switching views with a Button Control. You can switch
Views by clicking on a Button

Follow these simple steps

1) Insert a Button
2) Double Click on the button to open the button Properties
3) In the Action drop down select Rules and Custom Code and click on Rules
buttons and click on Add in the Rules window
4) Click on Rules-> Add Action
5) Select Switch Views in the Action drop down and select your view in the
view drop down
6) Click OK on all the windows to close
8) Preview the form and click on the Button

The Form shifts into the view you have selected.

I hope This helps you.

Another trick is to create a table, insert buttons into the cells, fomat the
buttons as tabs and then use the buttons to hide/unhide the appropriate
view. You end up with a tabbed interface
