How do I copy calendar items to the task list?
 

My boss is asking for all the managers to keep a current "task list" in
Outlook as well as our Outlook calendars. In addition to the open-ended stuff
like "completing department goals" that I would normally put in a task list,
I'd like to make sure all my calendar appointments, etc., end up on the task
list. Is there any way to copy the information I've already put into my
calendar into a task list?

How do I copy calendar items to the task list?
 

How about you put to do work in Tasks and Meetings in the Calendar. Then
show the TaskPad beside the Calendar so you can see Tasks and Meetings each
day. In 2003 View | TaskPad to turn it on.

If you use Start and Due date effectively, you can have Tasks appear in the
TaskPad on their Start Date and turn Red the day after their Due date.
You'll also need to set View | TaskPad View | Active Tasks for Selected Days
to make that work.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
