Is it possible to create a new just to open legacy forms? I created a form
that where the data source was changed. However since the form was published
in the same location same name older .xmls will not open with the new version
of the form. Is it possible to create a legacy form ment only to read
previous versions of the form?

Hi,

Are you published the form to sharepoint or local drive?
If you published the form to share point form libary, you need to relink the
older forms to open correctly.

Hello

If the schema is not changed you can open the forms. Publish the new form and
point this location in the publish url of the forms
