Controls which data merge algorithm is used for a given
subform.
Fragments inherit the
mergeMode
setting that
is specified by the root subform of the hosting document.
Designer sets the
mergeMode
property of the
root subform to
consumeData
unless a model or schema
that contains associations is used as the data connection for the
form. In those cases, the
mergeMode
property is
set to
matchTemplate
.

Uses a data merge algorithm where a single data element can
cause the creation of only a single subform.
-
matchTemplate
-
Uses a data merge algorithm that supports relational data
models and allows a single data element to generate a single instance
of multiple subforms. Disables the
addInstance
,
removeInstance
, and
moveInstance
functions of
the

object.
