Save Task Filters

[Domenick]

I have a filter on my Tasks in Outlook 2003. It is grouped and filtered by
categories as well as status and due date. This is my primary filter but
sometimes I'd like to see thetasks differently - say just a single category.
Easy enough to do, but then I have to go back and set up my more complex,
default filter all over again. Is there a way to SAVE task filters so that I
can easily switch between multiple filters at will? Any suggestions would be
helpful. Thanks.

Sure. View>Arrange By>Current View>Define Views. Select the view closest to
what you want and choose Copy. Give the view a new name and modify it to
appear as you wish. When you save that view you can select it later whenever
you wish.
