User Defined Field in Task Form

[Guest]

I have set up a user defined field in my customized view of tasks list. When I drag an e-mail to my task folder, it opens the task form with the appropriate information inserted. The only way I can insert this user defined information is to close the task, reopen my task list, click on the appropriate task, and enter the info. Is there a simpler way?

A custom task form would be the most common approach. See
