If you want to change the look of the taskpad you can start by choosing View | TaskPad View and picking one of the built-in views:
- All Tasks
- Today’s Tasks
- Active Tasks for Selected Days
- Tasks for Next Seven Days
- Overdue Tasks
- Tasks Completed on Selected Days
If none of those views meets your needs, right-click on any of the column headings for the TaskPad, then choose Customize Current View (Outlook 98 or later). You’ll be able to change the sorting, grouping, filter and other settings for the TaskPad.
For Outlook 2002, Office XP Service Pack 2 fixes a problem that made it impossible to add a custom filter to the TaskPad.
