Default task list and phone numbers

is it possible to set up a task list of phone calls?
when i try to set up the list and do a custom view with the field business
phone, the phone numbers for individual clients do not show up. I was unable
to get the company name to show up. I am using Outlook 2003.

Any folder view shows only the data in that folder, even though Outlook lets you think otherwise by allowing you to add fields from different types of items in the folder. What you want to accomplish would require custom VBA code.

Default task list and phone numbers

thanks sue
I am really having a hard time, trying to do the things that I can do in my
current software(Now Contact) and trying to figure out how to do them in
Outlook. How do I find out how to do a custom vba code? I would like to have
a daily phone call list. I sometimes have 30 or more calls to make and it is
tedious to try and type in each company name and phone number.
