Struggling with Employment Form Formatting in Word and Excel? Seeking Software Suggestions

Dear friends,

I am creating an employment form in MS Word and Excel, but I am continuously facing problems such as line adjustments, lack of perfection, etc. If anyone knows of any software or method that could help with these issues, please advise.

Rizwan.

Hi Rizwan,

Usually, the employee forms are created using MS Word, and you could also use the drawing tools to help you out. Just a couple of days back, I stumbled upon an amazing software that comes with Windows 2003 and is part of Microsoft Office - it is called Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003. This software is amazing as it gives you the flexibility to create as many forms as you want and to add whatever fields you desire! It also offers a few templates that can assist you in determining the fields you would need for different types of forms.

I hope this information helps you out as it certainly aided my HR team!

Dear Chanchal,

I am really thankful for your assistance. It has resolved all my problems. It's easy to use, especially the Infopath tour, which helps to understand.

Can I have a little guidance from you or anyone about using this software more?

Best Regards,
Rizwan 😊

Please use Table Menu if using Word. Otherwise, use Adobe Acrobat Professional Software.

Hi Rizwan,

My team is also working on the same, and we are all learning about it through a trial and error method (one of the best methods to learn :wink:). So, I am afraid that I would not be able to give you a structured process for the same. But as and when I do learn something that can make a difference to you, I will definitely get back to you!!

Thank you.

Hi (Cite Contribution),

Thanks for this. I have a question - why do you have the employment form on Excel? Don't you think if we had this form on the website and filled it there, it could be easier? By having filters, we can easily find what we need. It can save a few things:

- Time spent checking emails.
- Finding the correct person (instead of email, if we use a web-based form, we can easily find the related person by applying filters).
- Cost of stationery.

I would like to know the reason why you don't have it. Waiting for your reply.

Rizwan :)
