Assigning due date for task

When creating tasks with flags I would like to assign a due date and be able
to view flags by due date. Can this be done?

When creating tasks with flags I would like to assign a due date and be able

If you only want to search for specific dates you could just type "Due
date:" then use Insert date to enter the date/time information.

Then just enter "Due date: 10/26/2004" in the Search box to search for
all pages with the desired due date.

You could also search for all dates in a month by using, for example,
"Due date: 10/" in the Search box.

It's not a perfect solution but would work for simple cases.

It is not so much that you need to 'search' for a 'to do' due date; the due
date is somewhat essential for managing To Do lists! I need to produce a list
of actions due this week, next week, last week, overdue, etc. I need to split
these out by clients, projects as well as by just the date - ie, all the
simple Task List actions that Outlook and the myriad of other similar tools
will do.

It seems extraordinary that OneNote does not have this facility! In every
other respect, OneNote is ideal for me, helping to manage multiple concurrent
projects for several clients and prospective clients. However, without this
due date on the To Do actions, I won't be able to use it. In order to get
this functionality, I would have to copy the OneNote tasks to Outlook, set
the (client) Category on Outlook, and then view my to do lists in Outlook.
Might as well use Outlook!

Is there any other way to get the date into the OneNote to do lists?
