Hey Steven,
Formatting is done through the Export Manager. You can build whatever export types you want, customizing the formatting rules there. Most of the time you'll just specify HTML, but it supports any character-based output (XML, CSV, etc).
All you need to do is create the new export type, then pass that value to the function.
Hope this helps!

Here's an idea that I've been playing around with on my own w/ FormTools: automated form generation.
The concept: multi-user database (<100 users), each has access to a certain form/series of pre-designed forms (based on what package they ordered). For instance: loan pre-approval form. Each user has access to their own form+submission data, but not other users', yet it's stored in a central server.
The ability to auto-add the form + set up database fields + auto-import a pre-made email template would be swell.
Did that make sense..? Do-able?

It would be real nice to have an API function to remove submissions from the database by submission ID. I periodically download the submissions to a local CRM and would like to remove them from the formtools database.
