How can I merge two forms, (connected to the same .xsd schema) into one?
can one of the forms be added as a new view in the other form?

thanks

You can merge forms using the "File > Merge Forms..." menu item or use either
"ImportFile"
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/ipsdk/html/xdmthImportFile_HV01021393.as
p?frame=true)
or "ImportDOM"
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/ipsdk/html/xdmthImportDOM_HV01103979.asp
?frame=true)
to merge forms. You could add two views to the form and a field with a value
that distinguishes one form from the other, and then with filtering of some
sort show the forms in different views.

That's fine but i want to merge two .xsn files. The important thing is that
the data binding and conditions will go through, to the merged file.

I was able to crack open two XSN files and merge the datasource and views I
needed to integrate. But amount of work and debugging was too much. You
are better off making the changes using the UI into one file.
