I would like to arrange by Date, then sort by catagories. Why is catagories
not listed in any of the sort menus? You can group by catagories, but not
sort... anyone have a fix for this?

You can't sort by categories because it is a multivalued field. There's
nothing to fix because it's not broken.

Is it more multivalued than "due date" or "Item". I would just like to
group all those pretty colors together. It would be nice if I could arrange
by date then within each day.... "today", "tomorrow", etc. see all my calls
grouped together, then all my emails grouped, then all my errands ....
instead of them being spread out within each days task. It sounds like a
reasonable request..... : )

Absolutely. You can have more than once category on an item. You can't
have more than one due date.

And how would you do this, considering you can have as many colors as you
wish on a single entry? Which one should take precedence?
