Hello.
I'm creatin a form and using the Standard "Message" form as a template. I'd
like to delete the field "message" from my form. Even though i delete the
message field and rename the form, when i send it as a test, the 'message'
field overwrites all fields and data on the newly created form. If i put my
fields and data on page 2, this does not occur.
How can a create a "Message" form and remove the "message" field from Page
1? Thank you.

What do you mean by "overwrites"? Did you perhaps forget to configure the read layout?

Overwrites...the message field covers the entire form i created. it looks
like an email's body of text. It lays on top of the fields of the form i
created. Not sure why. I deleted it while creating the form.
Read layout? Do you mean item in properties?

You apparently missed the Edit Read Page button on the toolbar in form design mode. Click it and set up the read layout as you want it to look.
