VSD + web form builder - Post ID 203925

I am thoroughly confused.

I have a web form, built in the new Web Form Builder, and a web form built in the old version of Web Form Builder. When I am in VSD, I can use the Add Flash and add the OLD version form. What I'm having issues with is adding the form that was built in the NEW WFB.

Is there a tutorial or something you can point me to that will explain how to add from the new WFB?

Thanks!

This is the perfect information, thank you!

Is it normal for VSD to show Click Preview and then NOT SHOW the (NEW version) form?

EDITED TO ADD: I have not uploaded the form or the site yet, so it's not "live."

Thanks again!

Unless you publish to S-Drive, yes. This is because VSD does not know where the form files are locally. Once you publish to your server, the form will display fine.

This may help. when you preview in VSD the site is also stored in the previev folder (This is my location)
C:\Documents and Settings\*******\Local Settings\Temp
If you copy the form files, folder etc here then when you preview the site you will see your form. Preview only.

One other way is to save all files to the Wamp directory if installed and use localhost to preview. setup correctly you can test the form out completely. Not for the beginner but it is very convenient to have a server active on your system.

Hope this helps also
