Goto Page

GoTo Page is essentially a button that directs a user to another page of a form. This component is useful only for multi-page forms.

To add this component to your form, hold and drag the component from the component menu on the left, onto the blank form on the right.

Note: This control is supported in version 5.x for forms created in the Form Builder application version 3.x.
