Default find all contacts with tasks

I'm trying to create a view in the contact view that will show all contacts
with a task due today (or any date I specify). I'd also like to see a
preview of the task if that is possible.

Outlook has no way to produce such a view because it is not a relational database. There is nothing in a contact that maintains a record of whether any tasks are related to that contact.

Instead, you might work on a view of your Tasks folder that filters by the desired date and groups by contact.
