Weird task views

G

Ever since I updated to Office 2004, I've had some weirdness with my
task views.

In "overdue tasks" it lists every task I've ever had, including some
that are complete and never had dates in the first place.

It does the same thing in "changed in the last two weeks." At first I
thought it was because I'd updated the program in the last two weeks
but it's been longer now.

I have looked in the Help menu but can't find any way to correct this.
What's going on, and how can I fix it?

I really don't need tasks I completed in 2003 to show up in these views!

What if you add "Is Incomplete" as a criterion (with match <if ALL criteria
are met>)?

I don't know what you mean.. how do you set the criteria for task
views? I'm using the views that came with the program. If I could get
into them to modify them maybe I could fix this. Thanks!

Control-click the View, and then click "Edit Custom View". Then click "Add
Criterion", and choose "Is incomplete" from the menu. Click OK, and see if
that helps.
