WE are new to exchange and Outlook 2002 \2003. We were a Lotus Notes shop up
until a month ago so bare with me.
Since this is an outlook forum I don't know if any one out there is
familiar with Lotes Notes Client. Even though there are many things we now
like about Outlook there is a handful of things we liked much better in
Notes. One that I'm writing about is the fact that in Notes when you set
Tasks with due dates the tasks showed up on your calendar as items in a
different color then your appointments, meetings and such. They also moved
with your calendar meaning if you did not complete your task on the due date
it would move itself to the next day so each day it showed up on your
calendar until you completed it or deleted it. Users loved this and so did
I.
We are using both Outlook 2002 and the newest 2003. in neither of these
versions can we figure out if it can do this. They have the calendar view
with the taskpad to the side but this is mediocre at best. Users want to
be able to do a quick look at their calendar and see any important due dates
or important dates in general whether they are appointments or due dates
relating to tasks.
I see no way to get tasks to show up on the calendar at all? Is it just us
or does no one out there want to see task due dates show up on their
calendar?? I can't believe we are looking at the latest just out version
and it still doesn't have a basic feature that has been in Notes for 7
years!
Any help or pointers would be deeply appreciated
