Office 2007: Link Items

[JoeO]

In Office 2003, one item could be linked to another in the forms:

<outlook:Tasks/~Subject Name>
<outlook:Contacts/~Contact Name>

How can this be done in Office 2007? If so, what are the rules or (even
better) are there instructions online?

Thanks, Milly, but my question is how to link (for example) a Contact to a
Task (rather than a Task to a Contact). In Outlook 2003, any Contact item
could be linked to another by the text form <outlook:Tasks/~Example of ToDo
Item>. This does not work in Outlook 2007 -- although these Outlook 2003
links that were imported to Outlook 2007 do work!!

Typo correction: it should be "my question is how to link (for example) a
Task to a Contact (rather than a Contact to a Task)." IOW when I open a
Contact, I want to insert into the Note field a link to a Task which concerns
that Contact.
