FP adding number to end of form fields

[Guest]

I have a form that creates a search box on some of my webpages. Often I want
this search box in two places on a page. When I copy and paste the form from
one location to another on a page FrontPage adds a number to the end of some
of the form fields which makes the form not to work and I must remember to
manually edit them out.

Is there a way to prevent FrontPage from adding these numbers to form fields
when I paste a form? I've looked in tools but don't see anywhere to turn it
off.

Thanks.

If two otherwise identical forms exist on a page they must have
different form names and/or field names. FrontPage automatically
changes the names during a paste to ensure this rule is complied with.

It does that because it knows that there are two forms basically with the
same field names (and it won't allow that), hence it will increment the
field names by one to allow for that fact.
