I want to make an exact duplicate of a form, in order to make minor changes later.
So far, I have fruitlessly tried:
1) Save as, then add the duplicate to the project. The project only shows one of the forms.
2) Make a new form, copy the entire code from the old form, and paste into the new one. The compiler gives an error message; as far as I remember, something like "the forms share the same resources".
OK, there may be better alternatives, such as deriving from a class, and any other alternative suggestions are welcome, but I still want to know whether quickly cloning a form is possible.
TIA,
Hilmar.
