removing old completed tasks from current task list
Using windows xp sp3 with outlook 07 BCM...
When you mark a task as completed, I would like it to disappear from the task list. Instead it is marked completed (i.e. a check and a line through it) but still appears in the task list I am look at today (even if I completed it last week). I don't want to delete completed tasks, but on the other hand I don't want them cluttering up current tasks that need to be done. Any way to do this? Is the some setting on handling completed tasks? Thanks Bob |

Create a view that only shows completed tasks.

That of course was supposed to be 'hides completed tasks' or 'only shows
incomplete tasks.' -- "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote in message ...

removing old completed tasks from current task list
I view tasks at the bottom of the calendar, I don't used the task list at all (and really I haven't used task much before now). If you right click on "Show Tasks On: Due Date" column heading in calendar view "day/week/month view with auto preview" you can uncheck completed tasks and they disappear. So, that was easy. But, this led to more confusion...I though if I entered a task due date today, it would stay in the task list in the calendar view until it was completed. It only shows on the due date. I tried with the view's filter, advanced tab, field Due Date, anytime (and some similar approached) but could not make a non completed task show and any date but its due date. Any ideas?
