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.
