Most of us always need to know what&rsquo;s overdue. Sometimes, we need to know what&rsquo;s due in the near future. More often than not, we want both. When this happens, use multiple criteria to get them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"entry\" align=\"justify\">Knowing how to express what you need can be challenging until you&rsquo;re familiar with the existing filters. You just have to open the feature and look around. For instance, the following example uses advanced filters that you might not know about. Suppose the current date is April 3, 2008, and the status for five tasks is as follows:<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry\" align=\"justify\">\n<ul>\n<li>One was completed before the deadline.<\/li>\n<li>Two are due during the next workweek.<\/li>\n<li>One is overdue.<\/li>\n<li>One is almost two weeks away.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.techrepublic.com.com\/msoffice\/images\/blog7figar.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"blog7figar.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"104\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">To view a list of only overdue items and those that are due the next week, use advanced filters:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click Customize Current View in the Current View section.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click Filter in the resulting dialog box.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click the Advanced tab in the Filter dialog box.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">In the Define More Criteria section, open the Field control&rsquo;s drop-down list and choose Complete from the Frequently Used Fields item.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click Add To List. That&rsquo;ll take care of outstanding items.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Next, choose Due Date from the Frequently Used Fields item.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Select On Or Before from the Condition control.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">In the Value control, enter &ldquo;7 days from now&rdquo;.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click Add To List.

However, I wanted you to see how versatile Outlook can be. Use Value expressions to limit items when no existing condition exists.<\/p>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks BEGIN -->\n<div class=\"social_bookmark\">\n<a title=\"Click me to see the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d329').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_down',{duration:2.5}) }); return false;\"><strong><em>Bookmark to:<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\n<br \/>\n<div class=\"d329\" style=\"overflow:hidden\">\n<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a style=\"font-size:90%;text-align: right; \" title=\"Click me to hide the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d329').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); return false;\">Hide Sites<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks END -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">$$('div.d329').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); <\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date: April 18th, 2008 Author: Susan Harkins If your Outlook Task view looks anything like mine, it&rsquo;s too busy to be truly effective.
