Default Notes in Outlook 2003

On the notes file options, there is a place to specify a contact. Click in the upper left hand corner of any note and you will see where you can link to a contact or assign a category, for instance.

After furious head scratching, beamone asked:

| I am not understanding the Notes feature.
| Can I make a note with some tidbit of info that I want to be attached
| to a Contact?
| When I make a note I see no way to say this goes under John Doe.
| When I pull up John Doe Contact card & go to Activities there is a
| "Notes"
| in the drop down but I dont know how to put a note there for that
| person only. I just want to put infomation & not a task or activity.
|
| If I cant use notes, If I put the info in a task & put John Doe as
| Contact, it also puts the task under me as "owner" & there is no way
| to remove my name from owner.
|
| Also When I bring up a contact & go to "Activities" it wants to
| default to "ALL Items" which starts bringing in every email. Can I
| just default to something else like "Tasks" ?
|
| I am trying to use this program as a PIM but not having much luck.
| Do you know is Outlook 2007 is any more useful for personal use & not
| sales ? Would appreciate any help in accomplishing what I need to do.
