The overwhelming EXCEL Tax templates recommendation that people are giving me is Heizer Software 1941 Oak Park Blvd. Suite 30 Pleasant Hill, CA 94523. (415) 943-7667 (800) 225-6755 For $35 (plus $5 handling?) you get templates for about 22+ IRS forms which produce printouts in IRS-acceptable format. For an additional fee, state tax forms also exist for California and New York. A free sample 1040 form from Heizer exists on SUMEX (available via anonymous login) which has limitted functionality--it is EXCEL-protected, and therefore cannot be linked to other worksheets (IRS forms). The purchased version is unprotected. One respondant recommended "a place near Philadelphia called EZ ware that makes superb Excel templates". He used their tax templates last year and plans to again this year. The company apparently advertises in all the Mac magazines. Someone also mentioned that BMUG had tax templates for 1986 for only $3, but he had no info about availability for 1987. If someone does has more info, please post. -Carl Daudt, Earth & Atmos Sci, Purdue Univ, W. Lafayette, IN 47907 (317) 494-5986 email: tyv@j.cc.purdue.edu -or- daudt@purccvm.bitnet

>The overwhelming EXCEL Tax templates recommendation that people >are giving me is > Heizer Software >For $35 (plus $5 handling?) you get templates for about 22+ IRS There is yet another alternative. From Bruce C. Pettigrew, Jr. (One Kaizer Plaza, Suite 1050/ Oakland, CA 94612) you can get the same forms *plus* some worksheets and CA tax forms for $28+$3(S/H). He distributes a fully functional 1040 and Sched. A forms. I am posting these forms to comp.binaries.mac along with a worksheet with the tax tables (that was not included in the original package but I got from a BBS) for those of us that get less than $50,000. For those of you doing more than 50K -- Get an accountant!! (:-) (not really, the schedules are included too). I think this combination is enough to start with (at least it was for me). Please, don't blame me or these forms if you have problems with the IRS!!. -------------------------------- I. Arieh Cimet Northwestern University
