Insert Task Entry Shortcuts in Outlook 97/2000.
While creating a task, you may want to insert a shortcut to another item, such as a contact. For example, if your task is to send a birthday gift to your sister, include a shortcut in your Task entry that links to her contact information. To insert a shortcut into a Task entry, double-click on the task to open it, then select "Item" from the Insert menu. Under "Insert As", click on the Shortcut radio button. Next, in the Look In list, choose the appropriate folder, select the entry you want to link to, then click on OK. Once the shortcut icon appears in the Notes section of the Task screen, click on Save, then Close.
