if i got it right, you refer to the preview pane of an email.
What Outlook version?
Look into the Explorer.SelectionChanged event. this is triggered, when
an item was selected.
You may be able to modify certain information's in the selected item.

Thanks explorer.selectionChanged is called when switch an item or folder. It
also call when we select multiple items. I want to show some info in preview
pane when a single item is selected not for multiple selected items . But in
explorer.selectionChanged function Explorer->Selection->Count always returns
0. So i am not able to access selected item. Please suggest how to access
selected item. Why it always gives 0 as Count. Outlook version is 2003.

You could change the body of the eMail. But this change would be
persistent.
I don't know of a clean way to show a temporarily modified body.
You would need to save the original mail somewhere else and restore
it, when the selection changes.

If you need to have more fields net to subject/date etc, that might be
possible with custom forms. But I've never done this. Maybe someone
else has some insights / tips...
