    Hi! Can somebody please explain WHY does one need cloning?
    1. Is it just to save time creating a similar form or does it serve any additional purpose?
    2. Is clone tied to the original form? I.e., if I make changes in one, will it affect another?
    3. Does cloned form count for all created forms - i.e. if I use a free account and create a clone it will count towards my 5 allowable forms?
    4. I need a form to test some features I am not sure about - is there a way to have such Test Form without it being counted towards my free ones?
    Thank you kindly,
    Galina
