Sending note to Outlook Tasks doubles the text
"T. Wise" <terwise[ at ]yahoo.com> 24.06.2006 23:11:03
If I create a note in OneNote, say "Call Office", and then make an Outlook
Task out of it by clicking on the Insert Menu, and selecting Outlook Task,
the item appears in my Outlook Tasks list, but the text is doubled. In
other words, the item's subject is Call Office, and below that is a note
that reads Call Office.

Is there some way to have "Call Office" show up only as the item's subject?

Do you mean the text is contained in the subject field as well as the
big "note" field of the appt (open the appt to see it)? Or is the text
as well in the location field?

The text is both the Subject field and the Note field.

As the current version doesn't actually let you edit much about the task
data actually in Onenote, ie you have to switch to Outlook, I'd probably want
the text in the subject field and the note field.
Longer term I'd like to be able to edit more task properties/data actually
within Onenote so that the integration is more seemless.

Almost every program I have used that automatically creates Outlook items
(or items for any other PIM I have ever used either) always copies
everything they can get their hands on into the Notes field. I guess they
figure it is easier for people to delete what they don't want than to
copy and paste back and forth. Some people may want the subject to show
up in the Notes field so they can then easily copy that to another
program at a later date without having to go back and forth copying
multiple fields. It doesn't make it impossible for me to do something and
the efficience cost of ignoring it is very small so I, personally,
wouldn't be bothered by it.
