Outlook 07 Arrange Task To Do List by Date then Priority?

In Outlook 2003, I could tailor my taskpad to see "Active Tasks for selected
days", which I grouped by priority.

I can't seem to do that Outlook 07, so have settled for the "To-Do List"
view in Tasks, and I'd like to tailor that view so the Today/Tomorrow/Next
Week groupings have a Priority grouping below them.

Whatever I do, I don't seem to be able to keep the Today/Tomorrow/Next week
groups and have a priority sub-group.

Can anyone tell me how to do this?

If it's not possible, can anyone suggest an alternative?

How do you have configured things right now?
What happens instead? For instance; does it work for a few hours and then it
resets?

Hi, thank you for responding.

(OL07 Tasks) I start with the default To Do List view (recently Reset). Then
select: View, Current View, Customise Current View.

- If I select Group By (defaulted to None) there is a checkbox selected
"Automatically group according to arrangement" which I have to uncheck before
I can access any of the Grouping options, and I think this destroys the
Arrange by Today/Tomorrow, etc arrangement.

- If I go into Sort (defaulted to Due Date) and add Priority as the second
sort option, click OK, OK, return to Outlook, I end up with all tasks listed
(and most likely sorted the way I specified but the Arrangement grouping is
lost - at the top it says "Arrange By: Custom". I have right-clicked over the
heading and checked that the "Show in Groups" option is ticked.

If I create a new view, Sorted by Start Date then Priority, the dates are
all individual (not Today/Tomorrow/etc). I want the date clustering rather
than individual day by day, but I want to see priorites within those days
