Outlook 2000 Appointment folder

[Semut]

I created a new Personal Folder File. (*.pst)It is a secondary PST. (non
default delivery location) (check reply below by Brian Tillman about the
default delivery location). And then, I create a sub folder, Appointment
folder for the PST. (child folder for the root folder named "Personal
Folders")

The strange thing is that when I use my mouse to click on the appointment
folder, Outlook will always automatically create a Tasks folders named
"Tasks" for the PST, same
level as the Appointment folder I created. And the funny thing is the
created "Tasks" can not be deleted. It will prompt message below when
I try to delete it.

"Tasks" is a special folder. Special folders cannot be deleted. "

How to solve this problem?


thanks

This is normal behavior for Outlook, even Outlook 2003, despite what you
say. The default delivery location will ALWAYS have a basic set of folders,
including Inbox, Outbox, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, Sent Items,
Journal, Drafts, Deleted Items and for OL 2003, Junk E-mail. Those folders
cannot be deleted. If you aren't seeing it in another Outlook, then it's
because the PST in question is not the delivery location.

Re: Outlook 2000 TOP reply to this message
The question is that I already have a default delivery location which should
be in the "Outlook Today - [Personal Folders]" I am
creating a secondary PST.How do I specify delivery location manually ?



I am very sure it only happen in Outlook 2000. The secondary PST(non default
delivery location) appointment folder which automatically creates the
special task folder problem. I have tested in 2003, no such problem.

thanks.

I don't have access to OL 2000 at the moment to test, but if this is what
you see, I don't doubt it happens. That said, though, if it is a problem in
OL 2000, then it's one you'll have to live with, since Microsoft isnt fixing
much in that old of a version any more.
