Hello

I would like to view my calendar of appointments and tasks together at the same time. The information I have found so far regarding this is for Outlook 2010 for PC and the indicated tabs don't seems to exist in my Office 2011 for Mac. I am forced to use Outlook email for work so it seems logical to try and use it as a calendar as well. If I am going to do this I want to be able to view my calendar WITH my tasks for the coming month the in some form or another without a lot of typing, clicking and unnecessary reminders! As far as I can see the three options that should be available to me are:

-Synch Outlook Calendar and Tasks such that Tasks appear on the Calendar view. I have tried this approach and despite enabling the synching the tasks do not appear.

-Open up a task bar in the calendar view. I have tried this but the tab/setting which allows a task bar to appear in the calendar view does not seem to be around in Outlook for Mac 2011.

-Use My Day for a combined view. I would do this except I can only get My Day to show 1 day at a time. This is pointless if you are trying to plan ahead to the next day or week. I need My Day to show a calendar view.

I would prefer to be able to enter Tasks and appointments on the one view (how easy it would be if you could enter an appointment or task on the one Calendar view). This would probably require the second or third options to work. However, I would take a solution for any option.

Thanks
