How do I print a custom form to look like design view layout?

[trufftwink]

I created a custom form in Outlook using the 'message' template and several
'user-defined' fields including check boxes. I emailed the form to myself as
a 'test', and the format was identical to the design view layout which was
exactly what I wanted. However, the printed/print preview version of the
form lists all the user-defined/custom fields in alphabetic order down the
left-side margin which virtually rendered the form useless since most/all of
the intended recipients would print hardcopy versions of the form.

What can I do to modify the form so the printed version matches the design
view layout?

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customprint.htm for various solutions to the limitation that Outlook forms don't support WYSIWYG printing. The Word template technique is the most flexible and highly recommended.
