Saving data and moving between eForms

Data is not saved until you click a Save button or move to another eForm. You will always be warned if you try to leave an eForm and you have unsaved data. You can also choose to see a warning message if you attempt to save an eForm without having made any changes to it. Set this via Tools > Options > eForm.
