Creating and Completing Multiple In-Progress Forms

If you are working on one form and want to have a second form open at the same time, have your browser open a new tab/window. (This will display your browser’s home page). Copy the URL from the address bar in the tab/window of your original form and paste it into the address bar of your new tab/window. Then, type a “2” immediately after the first “trf” in the address bar — ... trf2.apptecls.com... — and click “Go” or hit your return key. A new form will open. To open additional forms, follow these same steps and change the “2” in the browser address bar to the next available — “3” or “4” or “5” — up to a total of 5.

1. Click on your “Favorites” icon. (Using Internet Explorer, it will be the star located in the upper right corner of your web browser.)

2. Select “Add to Favorites.”

3. Name the current form and click “Add.”

4. Your “Favorites” listings will now include

the added form.

Additional versions of in-progress forms

can be similarly added to your Favorites

– using different names – enabling easy

access to each.
