Hi,

Hmm...that's odd because the existing forms should indeed pickup the
changes. Now - I also want to be clear on terminology so we are both on the
same page! :-)

I am assuming you made data changes to a drop-down list on you "XSN" - this
would be the template. If you had previously double-clicked that XSN and
saved the resulting file, that would typically be called a "Form" and would
have an XML extension.

So what I am saying is that if you updated data options in a drop-down list
on your XSN file, those changes should absolutely be reflected in any
previously saved "forms" (XML files.)

If this is not what you are seeing, let's make sure the XML (forms) files
are "pointing" the XSN you are modifying:

- Open one of your XML files with Notepad
- Near the top you will see an "HREF" entry - this will have a path to the
XSN file it is associated with...make sure this is pointing to the same XSN
where you are making changes.
