How to Create Forms in Excel 2007
1. Open an Excel 2007 spreadsheet. Type in column headers in the top row for each column you will enter data under.
2. Click and drag the mouse over the column headers only to select them. Do not highlight any other columns or select the entire row, including the blank cells to the right of the column headers or else Excel will not know which columns to use to create the form.
3. Click on the arrow button beside the Quick Access Toolbar at the top of the screen, then click 'More Commands' from the drop-down list that appears.
4. Click the 'Choose commands from' drop-down menu and click 'All Commands.' Scroll down the list and then double-click the 'Form' button. Click 'OK' to close the Excel Options dialog box.
5. Click the 'Form' button that you just added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Excel creates a form with the column headers that you may use to add new records to the spreadsheet.
