    Making a copy of a form...

    I have some major changes I want to make to a form. So, I copy/pasted the
    original form within my project and renamed the pasted form to
    {formname}_new. frm.

    However, when I test the project, I get all kinds of errors because of the
    duplicate functions etc... that exist within the original form.

    How do I compile/run my project but exclude the original form from being
    included in the project compilation so as not to get the duplicate errors
    etc....? I do however still want it as part of my project...

    Thanks, Brad

    You renamed the object right? Not just the file?
