Cloning Subforms
Posted: Mon Feb 27, 2017 10:25 pm
I created a multi-subform survey. It works fine. The primary identifying information has been pre-loaded. But we're getting confused over which surveys have been completed. We can't just use a timestamp field, as sometimes typos and such are corrected without completing the survey.
So I cloned the main form and button, and changed the SQL in each to only show surveys to do or those completed. The original ("Surveys To Do") still works fine, but the clone didn't have anything in it. So I cloned and re-pointed the cloned subforms to the cloned parent form. But now THEY are empty!
Is there a general way to clone and modify a complete form, including all its fields and subforms? Even if that means exporting it and running a global-replace in a text editor?
Thanks!
