Design Outlook Form for Calendar Appointments  - Outlook 2007

Tags: Microsoft, Outlook, 2007
I am trying to design an Outlook Appointment Template using "Design a Form".
I have been able to create the appropriate fields and drop down menus in the template ... and then I am confused as to what to do next.
What I am hoping to achieve is the following ...
1) When I select "New Appointment" my own designed template opens up, rather than the standard one.
2) That the fields I have created can be populated ...
        - at the moment I am using a dropdown field and I don't know how to populate it with my data
        - when entering data in the text fields and I save it - the text disappears if I open it up to view it.
3) That the area that I created has the same blue appearance as the standard appointment (my is brown)
4) That when the appointment is saved ( in the Calendar View it displays the Subject - Location ... as per normal - but it also displays the Presenter and Kit being used).  That data would come from my fields that I have designed.

I am sure there is a way - I just don't know how to do it.
Alternatively if anyone knows a great website I can purchase a template (close to what I require) please let me know of the link.  I am happy to pay for someone to program / design the template to my specs as well.

I have attached an jpg image so that you can see what I mean.
