Hi Thomasm,

You need to pass string instead standard action in target attribute of URLFOR().
Here instead $Action.Forms__c.New provide '/FIRST_3_SYMBOLS_OF_FORMS_RECORD_ID/e?&RecordType=RECORD_TYPE_ID'

As a common practice, if your question is answered, please choose 1 best answer. 
But you can give every answer a thumb up if that answer is helpful to you.

Thanks,
Alex
