I am looking for software that handles task lists better then Microsoft
Outlook. Does anyone in this group have any suggestions?

I have tried using Outlook and I am frankly stunned that it is a
product of the largest software company in the world. My specific
gripes are

1) Outlook allows you to assign tasks to multiple categories. However,
it is difficult to only select specific categories of tasks to view at
once. You have to view all categories at the same time. So, if a task
is in two or three categories it appears on the screen multiple times.
If you have a large number of tasks you might only want to look at a
few categories at once.

2) Formatting for printing task lists is limited, so say the least.
a) It is not possible to have the subject line word wrap to a second
line, in table format. So if your subject line is long and you are
printing a table format list to a small page (for example a Day Runner
Running mate page), the subject line gets cut off.

b) The preview of the task notes is limited to two or three lines and
the formatting elliminates line breaks. It should allow you to select
the size of the preview text and if you want line breaks ellimiated.

c) It is not possible to insert page breaks before a new category
heading so that new categories appear at the top of the page.

3) It is not possible to select the order that categories are
displayed. You can select the order that individual tasks are
displayed, but not categories.

4) You cannot view multiple task folders in the same task list. I
prefer to keep different categories of tasks in folders and sub
folders. But it is not possible to view the tasks from multiple folders
or even sub-folders in a single list. So I have to use one folders for
all tasks and use categories to organize them.

These are major deficiencies in my opinion. I can see why people
consider MS software inferior, because it is.
