    Hi Saud,

    What is the background of your question? When you want to modify the form, you can also create a new project based on the customization model of the form and add the object.

    One more suggestion for that. On the visual studio click on ctrl + f - Find and replace window will be opened - On that window enter the form name >> On the Look in text box - Browse the project file and click on find all (three dots will be there at right side) - It will show all the projects that uses the form.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    As it was used in one project, so that should be in version control. So simply add that project to solution explorer and your solution explorer to source control and right click the form -> source control -> view changeset details. You can get the project from where this was checked in which would be the project you are looking for.

    Else you can also give find references and check where it was using so that if you find any custom objects you can check for that related project in the files.

    Hi Saud Jalil,

    Can you tell me why you want to find particular form in the project?

    You need to open each project in visual studio and see where the form is used.

    Another option will be - Navigate to the project folder path in file explorer - Open the folder that contains the project name - Inside that open the file that has extension "RNRPROJ" file in the notepad - In that noted you can find a form using find option.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
