Judy -
Thanks for your response, sorry I was slow getting back to this.
As I look at this more closely, I am now no longer able to do ANY "in-line"
editing of any of the fields that would normally accept a change. For
example, when showing a list of tasks, I can no longer change the Priority
without actually opening the task. I cannot change the due date without
opening the task, etc. It is as if the list is now just a picture of my
tasks.
I use Outlook 2003 SP2 on a Vista machine.
Thanks again,
Steve
