Merging different froms in One From

[Umesh]

Hi Pals,

I have comeacross one scenario.

It is possible to Mearge the Differnt InfoPath Forms in One Form.

For Example:

There are Form1, Form2 and Form3 and Mearge all this from in the one form
called MasterForm. Here without losing the DataSource created at the time of
form design as well as UI Design.

Any suggesations

Thanks and Regards,
Umesh

Yes, this is entirely possible. If MasterForm has the same schema as
Form1-3, then just open MasterForm in edit mode and then go to File | Merge
Forms. In the dialog, choose each form you want to merge. It's as simple
as that.

If MasterForm has a different schema than Form1-3, then you can still do it
but you have to write custom XSL. There is information about how to do that
in the InfoPath SDK. Just search for "Enable Custom Merging of Forms". If
you haven't already, you can download the SDK from here:
