I am trying to use Outlook 2003 as my contact manager. I am syncing to
an Ipaq Pocket PC. The problem is this:
When I look at the contact record, I choose "ACTIONS" then "NEW TASK
FOR CONTACT". When I do that, I get a new window titled
"UNTITLED-TASK".
I make sure the contact is entered into the "CONTACTS" field on the
bottom of the form. In the subject field I type something like "CALL
TO FOLLOW UP" and I choose today's date as the due date…close and
save.
It then syncs to my handheld…the problem is that the "TASK" on my
PocketPC says:
"CALL TO FOLLOW UP" and nothing else. No contact, no phone number, no
company, no link…nothing. I have a list of tasks and they all say the
same thing. When I am on the road, how the heck am I to know who to
call to follow up?
Do I have to type their name and phone number into the "SUBJECT" field
every time? If so, this really stinks.
Am I missing something? Is there a better way?
Thank for your help.
