Default How do you see which contact is associated with a task?

I used to use Outlook 2003 and was able to view which contact was associated
to a task in the bottom right ribbon when the task was expanded to full view.


I can't seem to find it in Outlook 2007. 07 even has a built in feature to
"Assign Task" when a contact is opened up, but even after assigning a task
from the contact itself I am not able to see that contact referenced in the
task window

go to tools, options, contact options and enable contact linking. That puts
the Contacts field back on the form, like in 2003.
