Pasting controls from one project to another crashes FF

[John Waalkes]

Hi Guys,

While trying to cut and paste controls from one project to another FF crashes. Is there a work around to this issue, or am I going to have to re-create my controls by hand?


Thanks!

John

You can not copy/paste from one project to another - you can copy/paste from one Form to another Form within the same Project.

You could manually copy the Form's *.frm file from one project to the other and then use "Project" - "Add Form" to add the existing form. Just make sure to copy the Form into the "Forms" folder of your project.

Okay, that will work. I had been trying to hand edit the .frm file to include controls from a different project.

With mixed results I should add...

Thanks!
