Ways to view your tasks

[Dave Mitch]

Hi,

Is it possible to view your tasks pane in your Inbox so that you don't have
to keep switching between the two sceens of Mailbox & Inbox?

Our company is running Outlook 2003 if it matters.

Many thanks.

Not with Outlook 2003, but you can certainly have your Inbox and your Tasks
folder open simultaneously and tiled next to each other.

As I unfortunately suspected, will have to wait for us to upgrade to 2007,
many thanks for your reply Brian

You can't have tasks in the Inbox in any version of Outlook. The Inbox holds
only mail items, not task items. What you'll get with Outlook 2007 or 2010 is
the To Do Bar, a separate pane that contains upcoming calendar items and task
items. This pane is visible when viewing the Inbox, but the tasks aren't IN
the Inbox.
