Outlook tasks have several different viewing options. It would be great if
one of the options were to either view them in calendar format
(day(s)/week(s)/month(s)). One would have the choice of incorporating them
into the default calendar or into a blank calendar, as one needed.

Any folder can be shown in a day/week/month view. Create a new view in Outlook 2003 with the View | Arrange By | Customize Current View | Define Views command.

I must not be understanding this because I can't view my tasks as anything
other than a list. Our office has payrolls that we do for clients every
month. I would like to set up each clients payroll as a recurring task and
view it in a calendar format so that we can see each day of the month what
payrolls need to be done. Is this not possible or am I just not understanding
how to get there. I do not see the day/week/month option anywhere under the
view menu when I am in tasks.

Thanks!

As I wrote earlier, the Define Views dialog allows you to create a new view.

I followed the instructions and can now view my tasks in calendar format.
The original post mentioned incorporating the tasks into the default
calendar. How do I do this? Otherwise I need to toggle between my calendar
view and my task view. It would be nice to have it all on the calendar view.

Thanks!

The original poster asked about displaying tasks in a calendar format. Displaying the data from two different folders together is another matter. Outlook 2003 and earlier versions have a TaskPad pane that displays tasks. Outlook 2007 shows tasks at the bottom of the day or week view. If neither of those solutions does what you want, try the add-in at http://www.taskline.com/
