    Copying of a Form

    Hello,

    I have a primary form. I just want to have the same Primary form twice (The 2nd form will have some design changes only).

    When I copy the Primary from and paste it then the copied primary form is unable to open. It resulting in some logical errors to open but when I open the original primary form it is going to open.

    What might be the problem in copy pasting of those form.

    Could you kindly let meknow how to copy paste a form.

    What are the error messages?

    If there is code behind the form that explicitly references the form name, have to go into the code and change the reference to the new name.

    What are the differences in design that justify a second form?

    Thnx. The primary form is connected to some code. I had done changes to the copied form and it looks absolutely fine.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
