Would it not be great if Outlook supported hierachial tasks?

[Guest]

All except the simplest task management involves main and sub tasks.
Outllook does not support even one level of sub task and I have not been
smart enough to think of a workaround solution. I'm sure Microsoft does not
want to canabalize any sales of Project, but it would make Outlook > Tasks
multiple times more valuable with at least a few sub levels of tasks allowed.

There are many third party programs that will do this for Outlook.

Milly - can you recommend a simple, inexpensive program solution. I would
like to create a single tasks, that automatically creates a sequence of
predefined tasks with dates, etc.

Thanks!
