Now in 7. it did work and worked very well. Just an example in 6.3 I tried to use it for the e-mail messages form. There appeared to be a record limit on the receiving form as well as one on the main one. Needless to say with the help of support we re-imported the mail messages form and used a little workflow to save off data.

I'm so used to 7 now I can't remember all the differences between 6.3 and 7 when it comes to archive forms - and I haven't worked with modifying them all that much anyway... Case in point - we've archived the main issue form from CSS (SPRT:Issue) and the system created a backup of the form. Consequently one of the tables that shows child records is broken because the ID field needs to be re-directed to the archive form "Original Issue ID" - not a bid deal there... However....when I try to edit the table field and open the properties to the "table properties" tab I just get a blank "Not applicable" tab. This also happens if I copy the control and try to create a new one. Was this a limitation in the 6.3 app? You can't change anything on the form? Or is there a way around this?
