I have a public tasks folder that has several views defined on it and I am
aware that you can tell Outlook, sometimes inadvertently, to make your own
customized view of the folder with the same name as one on the Exchange
server. Can anyone (Sue?) tell me how to delete those personalized custom
views? If I remember right, they are in a folder under "Documents and
Settings\<username>" but I don't remember where.

Thanx!

You could do that within Outlook going to View | Arrange by | Current
View | Define Views.

But you can also find them in Documents and
Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and there is an
XML file containing those views.

No, the .xml file is for the navigation pane settings. Views are kept in the message store itself.
