Default Tasks that have no Start Date cannot have Status 'In Progress'

if you've used outlook tasks for a while, you probably also have a fair
number of tasks that have no start date: they don't need one right away

how i am showing the taskpad view together with calendar view and what
does that give?

1. most of these tasks have no start date, but they do have their status
set to in progress - and that's wrong: a task that has not started yet
can not be in progress!

2. so, to keep it simple: i want to do this:

from the moment that the user sets the due date of a task to today
(so he wants to get it over with today), i want 2 things:

a. the start date of that task must change automatically to the
same day he wants the task to be done

b. the status must no longer be not started! i want it to change to
deferred or waiting on someone

how do we do this in ms office 2003?

where can i learn? sample code? examples?

thanks in advance
