Can you make a form that will preview in the reading pane?
 
I am needing to make a form that has multiple boxes, text and numbers, but I
am thus far unable to get the end result to preview in the reading pane of
whomever it is sent to. I have been starting with the default message type
form, deleting the actual message area and inserting the seperate boxes I
need, but is there a better way? I am a noob so I apologize ahead of time if
I have overlooked the answer elsewhere or am submitting this in an incorrect
format. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Outlook 2007 is the first version with the capability to show a custom form's controls in the reading pane. It uses a new technique called "form regions."
