With Outlook, how do you export data to a text file...or spreadsheet? Is it possible to do at all?...

is 2010 going to allow you to change default calendars? Doesn't make sense to handcuff you to only one calendar forever

I'm excited about quick steps! Nice move! But I don't like the ribbon. Isn't everyone on the planet already using office? Why make it hard to use for all us old-timers just to try to entice a few new folks? How about an "Office Classic" UI option!!!!!

Outlook 2007 wasn't the prettiest app from the Office pack. And to my disappointment, it doesn't change that with 2010. A lot of nested elements destroy, thick borders/outlines (for example: below the ribbon) give it a cluttered look and feel from the last decade. Outlook Features + Windows Live Mail Look would have been awesome, but maybe not from a business-man's perspective who is used to the current L&F.

I've installed Office 2010 and have tried to use Outlook 2010. I am really disappointed! There are so many bugs that I can't believe that it's a beta version. I find it difficult to restrain myself from saying something rude about it! The layout is something else again! Cluttered, untidy and illogical! I have nothing positive to say about it I'm afraid!

@nighttrain: I just tried Calender in Outlook 2010 Beta. Well, it turned out that your requested feature is already there!

@nighttrain: You can simply create your custom Tasks View for that "simple ability"

Outlook lacks a simple ability that is a deal breaker for me. I am dependent on a todo list that has all the functions of a calendar program. I do not use appointments. What i want is a day screen that lists todos/tasks and can devote, say, three lines to a task if necessary. The screen should have only a this month/next month calendar (that can toggle on and off), a line for each todo (expanding to three--240 character--if necessary)), and priority numbers (there should be at least 99). Each todo should have the ability to have a note attached. Suprisingly, of all the calendar/todo programs available there is only one that does this. All others reduce todos to a small, separate list. The one program is the very expensive "Office Accelerator." There was a good program that did all this, OnTime, but it no longer exists.I have experience with this sort of program. If interested in further ideas,email nighttrain@nyc.rr.com
