Move to Folder stunner…

[mark]

Hi,

I'm using Outlook in Office Professional 2003.

I have a calendar entry that on second thought should have been created as a
task. This calendar entry has an embedded Word document in it.

So I open the Calendar entry and do File / Move to Folder…, and select the Tasks
folder. Outlook magically creates a task out of the calendar entry… except for
one minor problem: The embedded Word document is GONE!

Is this a bug or a feature? Am I missing something? Or does Outlook arbitrarily
leave things out when it converts between calendar and task?

Thanks

Your observation is correct: Attachments are not included when you create a
new item out of an item of a different type. I don't know why it's designed
this way.
