Plugins that let you do nested tasks, or put your project tasks in order?

Does anyone know of any updates, anywhere, that will allow you to do
this? All I want to do is organize my (massive) task list and this
program won't even allow you to change task order or nest your lists.

Outlook does this. You can even do it in MS Word or Excel by dragging
a table row to a different position.

I like everything else about Entourage, but without the ability to do
this, the program is rendered nearly useless, to me. Which is
frustrating because I really want to use it. What good is it if you
can't put basic tasks in order, to do task 1, then task 2, in a
project? Thirty tasks out of order look pretty overwhelming.

Does anyone know of any plugins or similar that will help me solve this
problem? I wrote to Microsoft some time ago about this but have never
heard anything else about it. I suspect the suggestion went into a big
hole.

This seems pretty basic to good design of a program designed to manage
people's planning. I am hoping someone at Microsoft has noticed this
and created a fix.

Without this the program is unusable to me.

Thank you for your suggestion. I have passed this on as a suggestion to our
program management team.

Entourage has 5 priorities (Highest, High, Normal, Low, Lowest) for the
tasks while Outlook has 3 (Low, Normal, High). Project tasks can be sorted
by priority by clicking the Priority icon in the list (Schedule tab). The
tasks also can be sorted by reminder, Categories, and Project. I hope this
would help some.

Thank you,
Keiko
