HELP!!! Catastrophic Error-Open form twice for Copy-Paste

S

Surya

Hi,
I have a problem where if I want to open two infopath forms for
copy-paste between them, I get a catastrophic error on opening the
second form.
Currently, to avoid this problem, I am first copying the content to a
notepad file and then pasting from notepad to the infopath form. Is
there a better way at all? Why at all does this Catastrophic Error
occur and whats the solution?

Is it possible to provide a functionality in the form to save itself as
a new form (so that all data is retained) ?

Can somebody throw some light and PLEASE HELP ?!!!

Thanks a lot,

Surya

I can open 3 or more forms in design mode no problems, only thing i can think
is to make sure you have office SP1 and SP2 installed. Without these some
forms will crash and burn

Oh...no...I am talking about the run time mode of opening multiple xml
files published on a web server.

I have observed that the name attribute in the meta tag is causing the
problem as below.

<?mso-infoPathSolution
name="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:infopath:blahBlahBlah:-myXSD-2005-05-12T13-13-57"
solutionVersion="1.0.0.496" productVersion="11.0.6565"
PIVersion="1.0.0.0"
href="http://BlahBlah/TemplateShare/Template/sree/TemplateFiles/templates/my.xsn"
?>

I removed just this "name" attribute from all my forms and they started
working well. They could be opened simultaneously in the published
mode. Do you think this is fine? Or is there a better way?

Thanks,
Surya
