Tasks with Subtasks

[Guest]

I would like to see Tasks in Outlook with the abiltiy of creating subtasks
within a Root Task. Or perhaps the Possibility of creating a task and within
that task you were able to type in a check list of the various tasks with in
that item that can be checked off via tick boxes. It doesnt have to be too
fancy. This would really make taks really powerful, at the moment it becomes
frustrating as it just ends up being full of a bunch of singular tasks with
no real meaning.

This sure sounds like what I'm trying to do too. Let me know if you find a
way of making this happen for you.

I use Taskline, an add-in. Much more useful for a series of tasks with
dependencies. http://www.taskline.info

Categorising Tasks can work well. If they all relate to a certain project,
add that project name to your Master Categories List and use the By Category
view of the Tasks folder to see what relates to each project.
