Default include activities in view of contacts

I am tryint to filter a list of contacts and display activities associated
with each contact in a list or report. Is this possible in Outlook?

I am trying to customize my view of the contacts list and cant find any way
to add activities to the view.

Diane, Thanks for reply. I have realized that I can create a journal entry
for each activity and then display the journal entries by contact to solve my
problem.

One other question comes up in the process. Is it possible to edit the entry
type drop down box on the journal form?

thanks again...
