There is a third party add-in that is very useful when scheduling tasks -
Taskline. It allows you to create a reasonable timeline based on all of
your meetings, working hours, other tasks, etc. AND places the tasks in your
calendar.

That's what I figured. It just seems logical to me that something with a
start date, end date, due date such as a task would have an option to show
it
in calendar view. If I can look at a calendar and see when all my tasks
are
due, then it's easier for me to prepare for them. I've been told to list
them
as appointments, but that seems a round-about way of doing it. Thanks for
the help.

Version of Outlook?

Tasks are tasks, not appointments, so they show in the task list at the
bottom or side of the calendar. If you want them on the calendar, make
appointments instead.

I am fairly new to Outlook. It is easier for me to see my tasks listed
on
my
calendar, but I can only get appointments to show. Is there a way to
do
this?
