Button on tasks to go to the calander (both automatically update)

While tasks show up on the task panel of the calander, if there were a button
to push and the task would be placed on the calander to be scheduled it
would ensure the task gets completed from a time mangement perspective.

Drag the task to the calendar and set the appropriate parameters.

Is there anyway that the task entered(draged) into the calendar can be
automatically kept up to date when the task in the task panel is updated?
E.g. show that the task has been 50% completed.

No, there is no linkage.

From a time management perspective - do a few things to run the TaskPad
well:

add some columns to the TaskPad - Due Date, % complete or whatever you want
to see. Make sure you set Start and Due dates for Tasks. Set the view of
your TaskPad to show you Tasks from their Start Date onwards - View |
TaskPad View | Active tasks for selected Days.

Now you can run the Tasks according to time management principles.
