Tasks - Can not locate the fields in which the recurrence informationis kept?

I went to a table view for my tasks,
went to the Field Chooser and chose "All Task Fields"
I wanted to select the fields related to the recurrence of tasks...
I "assumed" they would be similar to the calendar fields/functions:
Recurrence range start & end dates, recurrence pattern, etc...

but... I can not find any fields to add to my table view to display
the information of this sort...
I have repeating tasks, is there a way to display the information
related to how they "repeat"?

Sorry if I am missing something silly, I had no problems setting this
view up for my calendar appts.

You're not finding anything, because there is nothing to find. The recurrence
pattern information is not stored in simple fields that can be displayed in a
view.
The only thing you can do is distinguish recurring tasks from those that
are not recurring by grouping on the Is Recurring field.

Dang ...
It sure does seem odd that Microsoft would not allow users to view
their data with that kind of that granularity ....

BUT ... I thank the messenger ;-)
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge Sue!
