Tasks in Outlook Calendar klmast 3/1/2007 4:05:30 PM I know this has got to be in ther... I just can't find it. How do I make my Business Contact Manager project tasks with due dates show up on my Outlook Calendar? I'm sure it is easy but I can't find it. Thanks!

Re: Tasks in Outlook Calendar "mrtimpeterson via OfficeKB.com" <u8453[ at ]uwe> 3/1/2007 9:11:27 PM klmast, The Outlook Task record item is a separate data object from the Outlook Calendar record item. You can set any Task up with a due date and also trigger a pop up reminder flag to fire as a reminder at a certain time of day but this does not place the Task item into the Calendar folder. You can also of course display this task item on the new To-Do bar in Outlook 2007 which I assume you are using because you mentioned the use of BCM Project Tasks. I could be incorrect but I believe that the simple answer is that you cannot mix Apples and Oranges between these 2 different Outlook folder data objects. -THP klmast wrote: [Quoted Text] >I know this has got to be in ther...

Re: Tasks in Outlook Calendar "Lon Orenstein" <Lon[ at ]pinpointtools.com> 3/6/2007 4:20:54 PM klmast: You can mix Project Tasks and Outlook Tasks on the ToDo List. From the left navigation bar, click on Tasks, then in the My Tasks box at the top, click on ToDo List. Click on the Current View below named To-Do List. To customize this further, I'd recommend going to View, Current View, Define Views and make a copy of the To-Do List view, rename it, and customize that to your liking.

Re: Tasks in Outlook Calendar slindgren 3/12/2007 6:21:03 PM Is the "to do list" only in 2007? I am running 2003. Additionally, I tried to drag and drop tasks, but it gives me a "conflict with another appointment" banner at the top "Lon Orenstein" wrote: [Quoted Text] > klmast: > > You can mix Project Tasks and Outlook Tasks on the ToDo List.

Re: Tasks in Outlook Calendar "Lon Orenstein" <Lon[ at ]pinpointtools.com> 3/12/2007 8:59:06 PM Yes, the ToDo List is new for 2007... I'm not sure about the conflict message -- are you scheduling Events (all day) and that conflicts? It seems strange that you're completely booked all day and really do have a conflict...

Re: Tasks in Outlook Calendar slindgren 3/12/2007 9:16:03 PM The confilict message comes when I try to drag and drop a task to the calendar as mentioned in another post. I have tried tasks that are due on certain days, tasks that have no due date, tasks that have % complete, and those that do not. Basically I want to have tasks show up in calendar, but 2003 can't do it as of now. "Lon Orenstein" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Yes, the ToDo List is new for 2007...
