Is there a way to automagically make a selected Category(s) show up in the
Subject line of a Task or Event?

I'd like to know how to configure Outlook so if I create, say, a Task on the
subject "Bring photographs to meeting", the Category I've chosen, say,
"[Smith, John MVA 2/3/2004]" would show up in the subject, perhaps as:

[Smith, John MVA 2/3/2004] Bring photographs to meeting

such that when a Reminder Window pops up, or if I see it on the Tasks or
Calendar section of Outlook Today, I'd immediately know what case to which
the item is related.

Thanks!

You'd have to write some VBA code for that.
