Abstract: Let

E

be a vector bundle over a suitable differential manifold

M

and let

w e d g e^{p} E

denote

p

-exterior product of

E

. Given sections

o m e g a_{1}, d o t s, o m e g a_{k}

of

E

and a section

e t a

of

w e d g e^{p} E

, we consider the problem if

e t a

can be written in the form

eta=sum omega_iwedgegamma_i,

where

g a m m a_{i}

are sections of

w e d g e^{p - 1} E

. An obvious necessary condition

O m e g a w e d g e e t a = 0

, where

O m e g a = o m e g a_{1} w e d g e c d o t s w e d g e o m e g a_{k}

, has to be supplemented with a condition that the form

O m e g a

has sufficiently regular singularities at points where

O m e g a (x) = 0

. Such a local condition is suggested by an algebraic theorem of K. Saito and is given in terms of the depth of the ideal defined by coefficients of

O m e g a

. Working in the smooth, real analytic and holomorphic (with

M

Stein manifold) categories, we show that the condition is sufficient for the above property to hold. Moreover, in the smooth category it is sufficient for existence of a continuous right inverse to the operator defined by

(g a m m a_{1}, d o t s, g a m m a_{k}) m a p s t o s u m o m e g a_{i} w e d g e g a m m a_{i}

. All these results are also proven in the case where

E

is a bundle over a suitable closed subset of

M

.
