How do I setup recurring tasks?

S

Sam

Hi,

I want to setup a task that I do every weekday w/ no end date and I want
Outlook to remind me every week day. It seems easy but when I set it up, it
reminded me once then it never did.

I figured I need to have NONE for Due date but when I do that it seems like
the task becomes a one-time task. Any idea how I can get this to work?

Thanks,

Sam

I have found that the recurring task does not work everytime, so I use
recurring Appointments instead.

That's exactly what I'm doing but this is not the first version of Exchange
for crying out loud!!!

Which version of Outlook?

Due daily, no end date doesn't recur them? Also, don't dismiss, but mark it
as Complete so the next one is generated.

I'm using Outlook 2002... So when the reminder pops up, what do I click so
it'll keep reminding me every day?
Thanks,

Sam
