they are in a module, why not add a simple hook_block() [or
the D7 equivalents]? It looks like the formblock module
probably does that with some fancy wrapping stuff.<br>

Thanks Nancy,<br>
<br>
They are in a module. I googled for some time and came across <br>
<br>
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1450941/inserting-a-form-into-a-block-in-drupal<br>
<br>
Which suggested<br>
<br>
function yourmodule_block_view($delta='')<br>
{<br>
switch($delta) {<br>
case 'your_block_name':<br>
$block['subject'] = null; // Most forms don't have a subject <br>
$block['content'] =
drupal_get_form('yourmodule_form_function');<br>
break;<br>
}<br>
return $block;<br>
}<br>
<br>
However I have done that for one of my simple forms and cannot see
it appear under block. <br>
<br>
Assume I am an idiot when replying because it might be me being
really silly. <span class="yiv1918322920moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span><br>

Thanks as always for your help. I have come a long way over the last
six months thanks to the support of this forum.<br>
