Kevin: no answers, but I think it's worth noting we've discovered similar problems when searching for custom forms in (or rather, not in) templates. Here's a summary of everything we tried.

Hi Kevin, I reread my goodbye-Kansas Blue Pill post, and think I found your exit (and yes, it"s bullet time):
  • on each the Custom Forms in question, create a brand new, separate, checkbox parm with a single value of Yes, defaulted to Yes
  • I"d suggest using the "Has [Custom Form Name]" naming convention for that parameter, in case you decide to broaden this technique (e.g. on a custom form called New Form A, the checkbox would be "Has New Form A")
  • create a Task Report that shows a view with that parameter in it (e.g. Has New Form A) so you can easily see either Yes or blank beside every form
  • for efficiency, add a filter to the Task Report that returns only Tasks whose Has New Form A = ISBLANK and you"ve found all the exception(s) (oooohhh)
  • click in that column and set the checkbox to Yes, thereby attaching the custom form and resolving the exception(s) (aaaaahhhh)
Regards,
