Adding a style transform to a form template in a Lists tool design

Custom Lists tool designers can style transforms to a form template in .xsl, .xslt, or .xml format. For example, a designer might want disclaimer text to be automatically added to the bottom of an item when the item is first saved.

Style transform code must be created and saved outside of SharePoint Workspace and then imported into a custom Lists tool.
