Can I create seperate "Task" folders with "Reminders" enabled for.

[Guest]

I'm using Microsft Outlook 2000. I'm trying to create Sub-Folders within my
"Tasks" folder for my Individual Sales markets i.e, seperate folders for
Dallas, Houston, etc . When I set up a new task within a sub-folder and try
to enable a remider for that specific task, I get a message saying the
reminder will not be enabled because the item is not a part of my Task or
Calendar. Further more, tasks listed within my subfolders do not appear on my
Primary Task list.
Can I create "Task" Sub-folders with "Reminders" enabled for the tasks
within the subfolders? How do I get the tasks within the subfolders to appear
on my "Primary" Task list, Calendar or on my Outlook today page?

I'm sure Tillman will tell you to use categories. But, seriously, I think
they might be good enough. You might want to have a bunch of categories like
"RegDallas", "RegHouston", etc. so that they all appear next to each other in
a category view, or you could set up a filter so that only Tasks with
Categories in a defined list of Regions showed up in a custom view.

I'd like to hear if that would work for you.

I'm sure Tillman will tell you to use categories.

How can you be so sure? I'm not a proselyte for categories. They have
their uses (and I use them), but I'm not rabid about it.

What did you tell Solomon, anyway ?
