I believe that you can.  You associate forms with folders, or you load them
into the Organizational Forms Library, and I don't believe that either of
those work any differently in Exchange 2007.  Here's a reference for
creating an OFL in Exchange 2007:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933358

Subject: Re: Keeping custom forms in 07

Thank you, Ed, for the clarification.  That is a relief -- the docs spoke of
additional PF hierarchies as being for 'application development' -- that's
where I got the idea that it might be about custom forms.

BUT, does this mean that I'll be able to carry my custom forms into 07?

The databases I referred to are what I created and that are accessed/edited
with the custom forms.
