Copy forms

I have an application that now has
Database
Database0
Database1

My database is really in Database.  I was playing around with subforms and created some forms in Database1, inadvertently.

How can I copy them to Database?

I don't know how to describe it well.  So created a graphic file of my tree.

Go to: http://briefcase.yahoo.com/jyellis@prodigy.net  (Select Work folder)

I want to copy the 3 forms you see under Database1 to the Database (first one on list).

Hello jyellis,

What is the end result that you are trying to get? Is it subforms or is it multiple forms displaying the same data?

Subforms are created in a seperate database and then linked to the parent database. If you look at the Gems sample application you will see there are two databases. One is Gems and the other is Gem Types. The subform is in a seperate database and just appears under the parent database. If you want a subform you are on the right road to creating a subform.

If you truly do mean that you want to copy the forms in between databases, so that all forms display the same set of data, the current version of Sesame does not have this functionality but I believe the developers implemented it for 2.0
