Default how do I generate a bill from an order form?

It depends... In what format is the order form? Hard copy? If so, then
you would have to type in the data from the order form.

If the order form is in some type of soft copy, then you would want to open
that file with Excel. The Help file will tell you how to do this.

If the order form exists as a record in a database, then you would need to
coax Excel to query the database to get the data. The Help file will (sort
of) tell you how to do this.

Once you have the data in Excel, then you can manipulate it as you wish.

That is about all I can say without greater detail regarding the challenges
you face.
