Default how do I link a button to a text-box in outlook?

I'm creating a custom form in outlook. It's for someone else involved with
the person who is the contact. I want a button that will link to a text box
like the one on a standard contact form. so when I click on the button a
windo opens and I input my data and it appears in a text box.

If you choose a multi-line text box, and give it some real estate on the form,
the user can just type into the text box.

Starting up an external editor and capturing its output is likely to be an
extensive programming exercise.
