Here are the macros I use to change forms with my Kheldian.

To Nova and Dwarf:
/macro Macroname "powexec_toggle_on Powername$$goto_tray #"

Replace Macroname with what you want your macro to be called, such as Nova and Dwarf.
Replace Powername with the power's name, such as Dark Nova or Black Dwarf.
Replace # with the number of the tray you use for your form's powers. Such as 9 for Nova powers and 8 for Dwarf.

To Human form:
/macro Human "powexec_toggle_off Type Nova$$powexec_toggle_off Type Dwarf$$goto_tray #"

Replace Type with what type of Dwarf and Nova you use. Such as Dark and Black.
Replace # with the tray number you use for your human form.

Note: You can also add $$powexec_toggle_on Toggle after # to switch to human form and activate a toggle. (Such as Shining Shield.) Or you can add $$powexec_name Power after # to activate a click power, or to use the power like the normal toggle. (powexec_name will turn off a power that is on, or turn on a power that is off, while powexec_toggle_off will only turn a toggle off, and do nothing for a toggle that is already off, and vice versa for powexec_toggle_on.) You can even have two human form toggles, if you wanted, and have them replace a toggle's spot. (Such as having a human-form-Shining Shield macro replace your Shining Shield Power spot in your tray. Be sure to use powexec_name, however, so you can toggle it on and off.)

These Macros should be in the Alt or Ctrl trays, so you can always use them. (Although, you could put one in each of the form trays, but the human form's tray will be somewhat filled.) You can make a bind key for these, by using /bind keyname instead of /macro Macroname.

Final example. These are the macros I use for my Warshade:
/macro Nova "powexec_toggle_on Dark Nova$$goto_tray 9"
/macro Dwarf "powexec_toggle_on Black Dwarf$$goto_tray 8"
/macro Human "powexec_toggle_off Dark Nova$$powexec_toggle_off Black Dwarf$$goto_tray 1"

With 9 being me Nova powers, and 1 being my Human powers. (8 WILL be my Dwarf powers...once I get to 20...)

Good info on your macros. Thanks.

The only bind I use with Coronae is an "any form to Quantum Flight" one. It uses the command:

/Bind SHIFT+Mouse5 "powexec_toggle_off Nova$$powexec_toggle_off White Dwarf$$powerexec_toggle_on Quantum Flight"

Instead of binds for forms I use the following setup:

Tray 1: Human attack powers slots 1-8, White Dwarf slot 9, Nova slot 0
Tray 2: Nova attack powers slots 1-8, White Dwarf slot 9, Nova slot 0
Tray 3: Dwarf attack powers slots 1-8, White Dwarf slot 9, Nova slot 0
Trays 4-7: Utility stuff like rest, sprint, dance macro, etc.
Tray 8: Human Utility powers slots 1-0
Tray 9: Human Defense and temporary powers slots 1-0

By keeping the forms on slots 9 and 10 I can hit the transform key and then cycle up or down on the trays while the animation is running.

Also note: When you are involuntarily dropped into human form (Nova and Dwarf are just toggles, and will drop if you run out of end, or are mezzed.), you will still have your form tray, not your human tray. So, you'll have to either use the human form macro, or another form macro, to fix it. (Or just switch manually...)
