Button to open a specific form without using the API_GenAddRecordForm API
Is there a way to open a specific form from an existing form without using the API_GenAddRecordForm API?
For example, I'm using form #10, but I created a clone form #11 that's more printer friendly and removed some fields. I then added a formula button on form 10 to print form 11. I'm wondering if there's a way to do this without using that addrecordform API since I'm not adding a new record. You'll see in my formula I'm referencing the form to open, but the button is simply opening the existing form:
