Task pad in Inbox

I had someone ask me how to view the task pad from within the Inbox as you
can from within the calendar. I have been trying to research how to do this
and so far I have come up with, "You can't" However, she said she had 2002
set up this way, but can't figure it out with 2003. From what I have found,
they said you couldn't set 2002 up this way, but she did. So, I'm assuming
if 2002 allowed it, there is a way to do it in 2003.

I can't seem to find it so if anyone else knows how to do it, I would
appreciate the help.

Thanks!
 
The only way to do this is to right click on the tasks folder (not taskpad - totally different application and not a part of Outlook/Office) is to right click and select Open in New Window.

She would have been able to see the TaskPad to the right of her Calendar in
all versions of Outlook - in 2003 it was turned off by default. Turn it
on - View | TaskPad whilst in the Calendar folder. Now she'll see the
familiar Calendar with TaskPad and Date Navigator on the right.


Milly's suggested way is the only way to get Tasks and Inbox showing at
once.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

The OP is talking about seeing the Taskpad while viewing the Inbox, however,
not the Calendar.
 
Yep. And I will bet that the op is wrong - they remember seeing the Task Pad
in older versions.
