In order to be productive it is absolutely necessary to get out of your inbox and direct your focus toward actionable work that can be completed.  The calendar or the task list can help you focus on that... they let you be proactive in control and focused.  The Inbox does the exact opposite.  You become reactive, out of control, and scattered.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Other than allowing visibility of some appointments and making the view available from any folder and not just the calendar, I don't really see any new functionality over the old task pad.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I would much rather see some way of getting an overall view of all e-mail, tasks, appointments, notes, and documents associated with a given project.

Ideally you would provide gadgets (I believe that is the name) for the three elements of the to-do bar that can be hosted in Vista's sidebar. I love the idea of having a sidebar style view into my tasks and calendar, but I would not like to have two, one from Outlook and one from Windows. It seems that the Windows one is in general more flexible, since one can host arbitrary gadgets on it and because it is visible all the time (if wanted), so I guess you guys should integrate.</description></item><item><title>re: Introducing the To-Do Bar</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/melissamacbeth/archive/2005/12/20/506047.aspx#525156</link><pubDate>Sun, 05 Feb 2006 17:19:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:525156</guid><dc:creator>K.

When I'm in the inbox (or other e-mail folder) I would like a to-do bar that is one column wide, showing this and the next month. When I go to the calendar, I want it to be three columns wide as I don't need all the space in the calendar itself and I want to see more months ahead in the to-do bar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyway that I can get this To Do bar to work, if not is there some type of alternative that is very similar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your time - the To-Do Bar looks great!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hopefully MS will update Outlook to include this capability.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, it is superior to the todo bar in outlook 2007 because it also shows untimed and multiday events. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the outlook blog, they say that is is intentional and not a bug. I want to know why!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, why would microsoft be inconsistent in it's display of appointments between pocket pc and outlook 2007? It doesn't make any sense. I've heard no reason from microsoft as to why they decided to code the todo bar in this manner other than it was intentional and it is not a bug - what a lame answer. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I supervise a helpdesk and we have just started using Outlook 2007. &amp;nbsp;Each team member has their own inbox and also opens a second shared helpdesk inbox, which we use flagged categories to indicate who is dealing with which email.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is it possible for me to see the flagged items in the helpdesk inbox rather than the flagged items in my inbox.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks.&lt;/p&gt;

</description></item><item><title>re: Introducing the To-Do Bar</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/melissamacbeth/archive/2005/12/20/506047.aspx#5172350</link><pubDate>Thu, 27 Sep 2007 22:02:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:5172350</guid><dc:creator>Dan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I stumbled upon this blog searching for &amp;quot;to do bar all-day appointments&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;I also cannot understand why all-day appts don't show up. The only workaround is to schedule the &amp;quot;all-day&amp;quot; appt from 12:01AM - 12:00 AM for 1439 minutes. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This has the unfortunate effect of placing the appointment across your entire day, but it does make it to the To-Do Bar. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I say this is yet another example of an oversight/negligence by MS coders who have long moved onto something else and the marketing/support folks calling the oversight a &amp;quot;feature&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;Someone with some VBA skills and some empty slots on their To-Do Bar will build an add-on that works better and starts to get traction until MS wakes up and provides an update/feature release/new version...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I like the To-Do bar and use it extensively. But one thing that I find a bit irksome is that if I want to view appointments on a future day, I have to open the whole calendar for it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It would be nice if I could just hover my mouse cursor over the date and a pop-up will list the appointments for the day. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks.&lt;/p&gt;

The To-Do Bar is too risky in it's current implementation; I'm disabling it until this oversight is corrected.&lt;/p&gt;

For us, Outlook (married to a Pocket PC) is the system we have come to trust and rely on for keeping us organized, on task, and less stressed. For that, Outlook (especially 2007) is worth it's weight in gold, and I want to extend my deep personal gratitude to Outlook developers for your brilliance in developing one of the most valuable software resources I've ever used.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With Outlook 2007's introduction of the To-Do Bar, you've made an amazing product even more amazing! What an incredible feature! That said, I'd like to add my voice in agreement with others who are asking for &amp;quot;all day events&amp;quot; to appear on the To-Do Bar. &amp;quot;All day events&amp;quot; are an extremely important piece of the GTD model, and for those of us who use the GTD model (now almost instinctively), having those &amp;quot;all day events&amp;quot; appear very clearly on the To-Do Bar would give us a complete, easy to see and process, at-a-glance picture of our Trusted System, eliminating the extra steps we must now take in switching between Inbox with To-Do Bar view and Calendar view.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for thoughtfully considering my request. Thank you also for all you do in tooling Outlook. You are a brilliant team, and for your commitment to developing a resource that allows me to process information in a complete, intuitive, fluid, really almost organic way, I am very grateful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;May you enjoy a wonderful holiday season,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jason Gilbert&lt;/p&gt;

</description></item><item><title>Show All Day Events on the To-Do Bar</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/melissamacbeth/archive/2005/12/20/506047.aspx#7671818</link><pubDate>Wed, 13 Feb 2008 14:53:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:7671818</guid><dc:creator>Thom McKiernan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I can understand that the mechanics of the &amp;quot;event&amp;quot; versus &amp;quot;appointment&amp;quot; argument. I therefore, understand that it would be contradictory to label an all day event as an appointment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why don't you just add an extra tick box on the To Do bar options for events. They could then slot in around the appointments, have a different icon or graphical design as they don't need to show times on them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is similar to how it shows appointments and all day events on the &amp;quot;Outlook Today&amp;quot; screen. Doesn't your argument apply to that?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On a side note, what is the point of having separate calendars if they don't show up in the to-do bar? I ended up having to use google as my day to day calender then sync the multiple calendars on there into my default calendar on Outlook (using goosync or oggsync) &lt;/p&gt;

I agree that the To-Do Bar is a great feature but I see a huge flaw in not including all day events. Microsoft: Please add this feature!&lt;/p&gt;

Copied from VBA help:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Outlook Developer Reference &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AppointmentItem.AllDayEvent Property &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AllDayEvent is thus one sort of Appointment. That means that not showing it in ToDo is more or less to be considered to be a bug &amp;nbsp;:-)&lt;/p&gt;
