MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / July 2007Transfer overdue tasks to a new due date-Outlook 2003
I have Outlook 2003. I used to be able to click on a task and move it over to a new date on the calendar and it would change the due date on the task to that day. How do I do that in Outlook 2003. I'd like to be able to see my tasks and a calendar on the same page. Any help would be much appreciated. To change the Due Date of a Task, open it and use the Due Date field to set a new date. You can wipe a date range in the drop down calendar window of the Due Date field. I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

In the Tasks folder, group by Due Date. Then open and change the Due date of 1 Task so that you get a destination group. Drag a whole bunch of Tasks at once to the destination Due Date Group. You can select more than one Task with Ctrl Click or Shift Click. I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

I have tried this but only get a circle with a line thru it when I try to move some tasks to a new date. Here is what I did. Went to View / Arrange By / Show in Groups / highlighted 2 tasks and tried to move to another due date. That is where I get the circle with a line thru it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your patience with me. > Sure there is a way but that's not what you originally asked about. > [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > >> > >> Any help would be much appreciated. It works for me on 2003 and 2007 - have a practice moving a single Task. Where you let go is crucial I think the circle with line means you are dropping it on the heading not into the group. You need to drop it into an existing group. You could also practice it with another grouping like Priority and drag a Task from High to Normal. I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
