viewing tasks in calendar, Outlook 2007

[LoLo Kolo]

How do I get the tasks to show in the calendar view according to the due date
and only the due date? This seems simple, as there's a "show by due date"
option on the display bar, but there seems to be some sort of override that
displays according to date completed instead (and, if the task hasn't been
completed, bumps it to the current day). I've entered a bunch of tasks with
yesterday as a deadline, and since they haven't been completed, they're now
showing under today's date instead. I want them to remain where I put them,
under yesterday's date. What I want, in other words, is a visual reminder
that these tasks were due yesterday\, whether they've been completed or not.
I understand that I could get this info via the tasks view, but I'm a very
visual person, and want to be able to see this info in the calendar view as
well. I've gone through all the menus, settings, etc., as well as the online
help, and just can't figure this one out. Thanks for any help you can offer.

This is the section of tasks under the days or week view? AFAIK you can't
control that. It's just a simple by start date or by due date and including
completed tasks.
