Hi Peter,

You could Insert Excel file from Tasks in Outlook.

1) Open task in Outlook
2) Insert menu > file
3) select excel file

RE: excel / outlook

Hi thank you for the reply, i didnt really ask the question correctly, what i wanted to know was how to combine excel with outlook tasks so that if i enter a date into a excel spreadsheet i will get an alert via outlook tasks on that date, it would need to be an on going spreadsheet and every date i enter will automaticly go into outlook tasks?. (that about covers it i think)

RE: excel / outlook

Sorry for this late reply Peter.

Excel cannot open Outlook task automatically. But there is an option in Excel to open Outlook task.

1) In Excel, open menu View > Toolbars > Reviewing
2) The 9th button, "ClipBoard with a red tick", will open Outlook Task window.

See if that's what you are after.

Thank you Katie you have been a great help.

Excel tip:

LARGE and SMALL functions and their uses

Two of Excel's most common functions are the MAX and MIN functions which will display the largest (MAX) or smallest (MIN) value in a series. What if you need the 2nd or 3rd largest or smallest values instead of the largest or smallest?

The =LARGE(array,n) returns the nth largest value of a series.

The =SMALL(array,n) function returns the nth smallest value of a series.

In both functions, 'n' represents the order of the number you want to display. For example, putting in 2 as n will give you the second highest number; putting in 3 as n will give you the third highest number.
