It is easy enough to understand what a form is when thinking about paper. It could be a shopping list, a check (cheque) you are writing, a job application, a magazine subscription, or your taxes. Essentially, a form has fields where you enter information.
So now think of a Lotus Notes email message as a form. You enter information into fields, such as the recipient names and the subject.
A contact in your address book is a form. You enter the person's name, email, phone numbers, etc.
Entries on your calendar are forms. They have a date, time, subject, location, etc. So are To-dos, a blog posting, a question in a discussion database, a ticket in a Helpdesk application, or any one of a million other types of uses your company might have for Lotus Notes.
