The Data Entry Form templates listed in the My Templates folder of the elements pane are the templates that you have created. Each of these templates has an associated XML or FFML file located in the <IMSMA Installation Direcotry>\client\FormTemplates\MyTemplates folder.
| File:LightBulb.png These steps are done outside of IMSMA. |
To share a template with other sites using IMSMA:
- Open Windows Explorer.
- Locate the files in the <IMSMA Installation Directory>\client\FormTemplates\MyTemplates folder that are associated with the Data Entry Form template(s) that you would like to share.
- E-mail the Data Entry Form template’s XML file(s) to the person(s).
- The person receiving the file(s) will need to copy the file(s) into their <IMSMA Installation Directory>\client\FormTemplates\MyTemplates folder. After the file(s) have been copied into the folder, the IMSMA client will need to be restarted to make the Data Entry Form template available from the My Templates folder.
