Default ANY WAY TO MAKE COMPLETED TASKS SHOW AS HIGHLIGHTED?

Just wondered if there was a way to change the display of completed items
from strikeout to highlighted in tasks. if it can be done programatically,
how advanced would one have to be to make it happen.


thank you,
Darren

You don't need code for that unless you want to distribute something. Just
customize the current view in the Tasks folder. Select View, Customize
Current View and select the Automatic Formatting button. In that dialog
select the rule you want to change and set the Font to use. You can change
from strike-through to underline (or both) and use whatever font and font
style you want (regular, italic, bold or bold italic). You can also set font
size and color.
