Simple form for sending message
 
Hi,

I would like to create a simple form for my personal use to create a flight
reservation request to my travel office.

The form should only ask me to input flight #, date and time of flight and,
after closing, it should automatically send an e-mail to the travel office
saying: "Please reserve me a seat on [flight number] flight on [date] at
[time]. Thank you."

Considering I'm a total beginner of form developing, is this easily doable
without any code writing? Is there any document that tells me how to perform
a task like this?

I'm using Outlook 2003.

Thanks for kind answers.

Simple form for sending message
 
In particular, this would have to be a form that itself creates a new email message with the Application.CreateItem() method, using the data from your input form.
