No more Active Task For Selected Days/Task Pad on Outlook 2007

Hello,

I’m part of a training company, we teach people how to word effectively and
productively with Outlook

We teach people to use Calendar and Task to manage their work, we always
suggest 2 simple things:

Use the Task pad on the Calendar and use the View “Active task for selected
daysâ€
Then, Always set an Start and Due Dates for ALL your tasks

Then as example if you decide that you are going to work in one specific
task from August 9th, to August 15th
And Today is August 3rd, and you are trying to figure out how your work
load is going to be for August 13Th. You simply need to click August 13th on
your calendar and you can find all your meetings/appointments for that day,
and in the Task pad all the task that you should be working on that day. So
you can decide if add or not another new appointment, task, or commitment.


This Active Task for selected Days is a very important function in Outlook
that allow people to do Future Planning…

But now it simply disappeared…

Nor Daily Task on Calendar or the new To Do Bar can show the specifics
tasks that I should be working on an specific day…
With Daily Task on Calendar I can only see the task that should begin or end
on an specific day, but not the task that I probably should be working on,
even if they started previous… And To Do bar, show all Task, I can group
them, but still, I can only manage views according the Start or due Dates,
but not with dates between this 2 values.

My question is…

¿Do you know if its possible to build an Add Inn, Macro, Search, Filter view
o whatever that could help us to do Future Planning using Task as we use to
do with all previous versions of Outlook?

Of course we teach people a lot of more best practices, and functions.. But
right now we are having a tremendous Headache trying to resolve this...

Hope you can help us…
