I created a form and now I want to add an "Approved" and "Not
Approved" checkbox, button or whichever is easiest on the "Edit/Read
Page" only. Once one of these is checked, I'd like the reply to go
back to the sender with either "Approved" or "Not Approved" in the
subject line.
 
The easiest way to handle that is not with check boxes but with voting buttons, which are actually actions on the (Actions) page of the custom form.

So, there's nothing within the form itself? Just the Reply/Voting
buttons on their own separate toolbar? Is there a particular form I
should base it on? I was hoping to have something a little more
visible in the form itself.
 
If you want to use check boxes, that means a custom message form, with code behind it either to create the reply, change the subject, etc. or to execute a voting button, published where all users have access to the form definition. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=61 for more on such prerequisites (which often can't be met and thus preclude using a custom form).
