If there aren’t enough forms in your life, read on. Form Workshop, for Windows PCs, has 1,200 ready-made forms that you can customize to meet your business or personal needs.
If these forms don’t meet your creative standards, you can start from scratch and build your own.
And that’s not even counting all the form letters you can create.
Imagine being able to design a form letter that you could send to a merchant who gave you outstanding service.
OK, so you don’t need a form for that, but if you did, you could create one and even import data from your favorite database program, such as Microsoft Access.
You’ll find ready-made forms for business transactions, accounting, time management, human resources, employment, marketing and sales, project management and nearly 1,200 others.
Even if you go with a ready-made form, you can import your own logo, photos and other elements so that your form says you. If you don’t want your form to say you, by all means, make it look even better.
Installation is straightforward, and the interface is friendlier than you’ll find in most corporate offices.
You choose either forms you can modify or ones you can fill in. The forms you choose have the power to perform calculations, such as adding rows of numbers.
Once you’ve designed and filled in a form, you can e-mail it, even to people who don’t have the Form Workshop program. You can also post it on your Web site so employees or customers can fill it out.
I’m a newbie at form creation, but I was able to create a decent-looking and functional form faster than I’ve done in for utility in Word.
A nice bonus is the program’s label feature, which you can use to create mailing labels using data from Access or other database programs.
Form Workshop will run on Windows XP, Me and 98.
