I am looking for some free download templates for office XP. The microsoft
office website only has 97/98 versions and they won't work on XP.

I am looking for a Job order form to email to temp services to request the
position, number of people needed, shift and start times.

I thought maybe someone might know of some websites that offers a good
sample of outlook forms or maybe someone can email a copy of the form if they
have one similar to the one I described above.

Thanks,
Michele

Outlook forms created in Outlook 97/98 work on all versions, although the installation instructions probably are wrong for later versions.

In any case, custom message forms aren't going to work for this purpose unless you meet the prerequisites described at http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=61

Sue, You are correct. The installation directions are wrong. Do you know
where I can get installation steps for xp to make them work?

Thanks,

It's hard to help without knowing what instructions you're working with. In general, though, custom forms saved as .oft files need to be opened with the Tools | Forms | Design a Form command if you want to modify them or Choose Form if you just want to publish it without modification.
