When I have a specific task open and I select Send Status Report and an
e-mail is automatically created with the information about the task (
Subject, Status..etc) above the information I have typed into the open area
of the task.
I would like this to be reversed: The information I have typed into the
open area of the task (sorry don't know the name for this field/area) would
be arranged over the infromation about the task ( Subject , status...etc.).
If this can be done, how?

Outlook doesn't provide any direct way to change the task status report layout. You could try using the Application.ItemSend event to intercept the outgoing report item and then modify its Body property, but I haven't tried it myself.
