Quick Binding and SQL database transfer

[Shane Stimpson]

Hey everyone,

I have a pretty large database and form (~1600 tags). Is there a way I can
quickly bind the tags instead of individually changing the binding on each
one?

Also, I have been binding to an SQL database on my computer, but I will need
to transfer the database to a server for public (well, more public than it
is) use. Will this influence my binding at all?

Thanks for the help.

Sincerely,

SS

Is this a new form or existing form?

If this is is an existing form there is no easy way to change bindings.

If this is a new form you can create a data connection that maps to your
database and drag the fields on to your form.

I was afraid of that. It is an existing form. I spent about 8 hrs yesterday
binding everything. I just hope everything doesn't flop when I transfer the
database.
