view tasks?

[Guest]

Is there a way to view an upcoming task date or information from a contact
form without using the activities tab?

I have created anoter sheet in the contact form with various customer
information and would like to have a field in there showing when the next
task date is.

There's nothing built-in to do that. Conceivably, it could be done with a
custom task form or a COM add-in.

I tried from the design view of my custom contact form to drag every
concivable available field from the field chooser / all task fields, no
sucess.

seems like it should be easy enough to do. Guess Ill use the Activities tab.

Well, of course, there was no success, since Outlook keeps no record like
that. As I said, if you want to keep such a record, you'll have to write the
code to do it.
