How do i show only daily tasks when printing daily calendar?

Guest

I'd like to be able to have only my current day's tasks show in the taskpad
when printing a calendar in the Daily Style (rather than all the tasks I have
on my task list). Is this possible? Thank you for any help!

Adjust the view of your TaskPad to Active Tasks for Selected days. If
that's not enough, tailor the view of your TaskPad.

Thanks for the info - once I played with figuring out how to adjust the view
of the TaskPad I got what I wanted.

thanks again!

Judy -
I saw your response. I have what I think is the same question, but I
haven't yet been successful. My view on the screen only shows active tasks,
but when I go to print (single day, trifold, etc.) within my calendar the
task section still shows ALL tasks whether completed, old, active, etc.

I'd appreciate any thoughts you might have.
Thanks.

I don't print much so don't take this as the only option! But I think you
may have to do the tailored Tasks printing separately to the calendar
printing. Basically, set up the Tasks and print these. Then print the
Calendar separately. Have a look at slipstick.com as Sue Mosher has a lot
of printing information there.

I just had Outlook 2003 installed yesterday and find not being able to print
the active task list on the daily calendar print out most unhelpful. Having
to put tasks on a separate page really limits the usefulness of the daily
calendar for me. The only way I could make it work was to delete all
completed tasks so I no longer have a record of them. Has anyone come up
with a better way to edit what prints in the task pane on the daily calendar?

I would also like to print today's tasks when printing the calendar. I have
the taskbar view set on today's tasks. However, it still prints the
completed tasks. How do I change this to print only today's tasks? Thanks
for your help!

I'm having the same problem as everyone - attemtping to print my taskpad in
Trifold form where ONLY my Taskpad subject prints (not the Status, Due Date
etc).

Judy, I wasn't sure how to do what you suggested, but tried what I thought
was it and I still cannot find a way to limit the information printed for
Taskpad in my Trifold format. HELP!! :)

Hi Judy,

I am having a similar problem and hope you might be able to offer some
advice. a quick bit of background for you: Working as a cleaner at a number
of sites, and keeping a lict of bookings using the calendar in outlook 2002.
This is for the ovals that are booked for certain hours each day. This part
works fine...

BUT:

When I use the tasks section for the halls that I have to clean on certain
days each week, they all show up each and every day regardless of if they are
to be cleaned on that day...does that make sense???

I am hoping to use the tasks sectin to list each days cleaning only and to
be able to print as such. but the problem comes when I make an entry for a
venue to be cleaned on eg: monday, wed and Friday...even if I set it up as a
daily entry for the above days, it still shows up on each of the 7 days of
the week


This might sound strange, but any help you can shed would be greatly
appreciated.


Thanks

Mark.

I too am having the same problem! I have read numerous tips on here of how
to show only [one days tasks] and I have followed the directions but I have
had no luck. It continuously is recommended to "go to active view and then
click selected days". But my questions is after clicking on the ACTIVE TASKS
(in task panel) how do I click selected days? In my task pane I was able to
AT LEAST set it up so that it groups my tasks by day (but they still all
remain viewable on one sheet) . However, when I go to my Calendar under
Daily View... it STILL shows me ALL of the tasks which do not apply to that
particular day. HELP please?

There is a setting of the TaskPad in Outlook 2002 and 2003 called "active
tasks for selected days".

If you have that setting on and you highlight a day or as many as you want
in the Date Navigator (that's the tiny calendar), those are the days of
Tasks it should print for you. This all works on the basis of you making
certain Tasks "active" - that is they have a Start Date of today or earlier
and they are not complete..
