Help: Template for FORMS

Question

I am working on a set of forms. I'd like to call one of the form be template. It has:
1. Form level triggers;
2. Button controls;
3. Message controls;
these features can be applied to all about 20 forms except for very minor changes. I'd like all other forms will inherit these feature, so that the changes made on the template will be automatically passed to all the other forms.
Please help.
Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

not easy
create in the template 3 object-groups. put in this groups:
- all form level trigger
- all button controls
- all message controls
inherit this og's to one of your 20 forms. After that you close all forms and re-open only the one, which inherits the new og.
Now you eliminate the old form level trigger, e.g. After deleting you save the form, close and re-open it. You see then, that all your form-level trigger are back through the inheritance from the og.
Do the same with the other objects. Deleting, closing and re-opening.
try it
