[dba-Tech] Outlook tasks question

[rocky smolin]

How do you move from one account to another in Outlook? 

The complicated way to do this might be to have code behind form, some VBA
which would open a to do list tracker db in Access.  Fun for me but not for
many.

OTOH, might this be the idea for a product - add-in to Outlook?

Logically? I'd like the list to update when I move from one account to
another and show only those tasks that relate to that account. 

I don't use Outlook calendars at all, but it wouldn't hurt to have them. 

I doubt it can be done.

The only way I can think of is to create three calendars - I know Outlook
can do this because I had to automate separate calendars for an Access app
years ago. Will that get you close?  It could work for to-do lists because
they're usually tied to an action date or a deadline.

What is the source of the lists? Do the lists have to be logically connected
to the accounts?

I have three email accounts and they all import into three inbox accounts in
Outlook. I'd like to create multiple tasks list -- or to-do lits -- and
assign them to those accounts. Then, when I'm in that account, the to-do
list would show the tasks for that account. 

I've researched, but come up with nothing. 

Does anyone know if this can be done?
