The PrintPreviewDialog that comes with VS2005 is good, but the people using
our software are having a hard time learning how to call the PageSetupDialog
first. They are accustomed to Microsoft Word's ability to simply drag a bar
around to set the margins and such from within the Print Preview.

Does anyone know of a way to either include a PageSetupDialog within the
PrintPreviewDialog or know of how to write a custom PrintPreviewDialog to
include PageSettings?

The PrintPreviewDialog is just a Form that conteains a
PrintPreviewControl. You can design your own Form containing whatever
functionality you desire plus a PrintPreviewControl for the previewing
itself, and then use that form instead of the original PrintPreviewDialog.
