Hi,

Let's say I have a form with checkboxes such as:
If checkbox is cleared value is N, if checkbox is checked, the value is Y.

Now, let's say that I create a new form and copy a modified schema from the
previous form (same structure but with one more level between the base and
the fields used for the checkboxes) .  Next, I am copying the checkboxes
from the previous form.

I can reattach the checkboxes by using the: "changing binding" property on
each checkbox.  But all my rules and values (Y/N) are gone, why?

Thanks

Unfortunately, this is expected behavior. Some control properties in
InfoPath are able to be copied, because they live in the view, and others
are related to the Data Source and cannot be copied easily. It's not the
best behavior, but it's one of those limitations we're curently living with.
