Why do I need to use the “Save Form” icon and save everything in the C:eSmart folder?
Although eSmartForms look just like paper forms, they are actually software with data processing functions. Since we do not require you to have a database, we use folders to store the forms and data so the eSmartForms software can find and process the data as needed. It is important to use the “Save Form” icon to save a copy of the form you have prepared in the designated folder. If you use the “Save” or “Save As” commands in Microsoft Word, you will move the forms to folders that the eSmartForms software cannot find, thus you will not see the toolbar the next time you open your form. Another benefit of using the eSmart “Save Form” icon is that everything you do with eSmartForms is kept in one folder. Should you choose to remove everything, you just need to delete the “eSmart” folder and everything is deleted.
