Karen, Why not make a sample form. Fill it with all the controls you use, set up you favorite ways, but with blank componentids and no code or variables or lookups. Basically make them C&P idiot proof! You can continue to optimize, add to and enhance these as you wish.
You can C&P these without getting into trouble. If you need multiple forms with controls set up for different scenarios that is obviously a possibility. You can even carry them unloaded to a usb stick for use at customer sites!

Do you want to guess how much time I spent this morning figuring out why one simple change to my form made something not work right? And it comes down to this -- I copied and pasted another control and totally forgot to erase the componentid and the custom eep code that was in the pasted control.... If I had a dime for everytime I got into trouble from copy and paste.... TGIF!! Karen
