DotazDisplaying 2 forms at once

    All,

    I need some advice.

    I have a requirement to display a tabbed browser-enabled Infopath form.  I was able to do this fine using buttons to emulate tabs that then switches to different views.

    The tricky requirement though is that one of the tabs need to also display a different form from the current one. 

    So for example, suppose I have Form1.xsn and Form2.xsn.  Basically, I need a capability to display Form2 within Form1... somehow.

    Any idea on how I can do this?

    Thanks.

    Do you need all data, or just some?  Does it need to be read-only or editable?

    If read only, you could promote the required fields and report on them via a webservice datasource.

    You can only show one form and that's the form you opened.  However, you can easily create a recieve data connection back to your form library which allows you to then show all promoted fields of every form in a repeating table.  You can choose to show one, two, or many records.  it would just be tough to show it in the same format as the original form, but you can easily show all the data as long as it gets promoted to the library.

    Good question bobchauvin - I actually need to be able to edit the data as well. 

    Using a receive secondary data connection causes the field to be read-only. 

    Any other ideas?

    That's asking a lot.  I don't know of a way to do that.  Sounds like this needs to be made into one form with multiple views if you can live with that.  If you need to open and edit the content of two forms at once, that is going to require some heavy code and/or workflow to populate fields in another list/library after submission.
