Is there a way to display future tasks in Outlook without having previously completed the current ones?

Thanks,
Paul
 
View-Toolbars, Advanced.

Choose Simple list (if you're not there already).

Click the Checkbox heading. The first time you click, it should put completed tasks at the top. The 2nd time you click, it should put completed tasks at the bottom...

Hey. Sorry if I didn't give a very good explanation of what I wanted to do. There are several recurring tasks that come up that I want to be able to print out. What I need is something set up like the following:
Code:
    Process             Company Name   Completed Completed
                                         Date        By
January

1st
     
     Do taxes           Company1             [   |   ]
     Fill out forms     Company2             [   |   ]

15th 
     Do taxes           Company1             [   |   ]
     Fill out forms     Company2             [   |   ]
     Do something else  Company3             [   |   ]

February

1st
     
     Do taxes           Company1             [   |   ]
     Fill out forms     Company2             [   |   ]

15th 
     Do taxes           Company1             [   |   ]
     Fill out forms     Company2             [   |   ]
     Do something else  Company3             [   |   ]

I tried putting all these tasks into the calendar instead of in tasks because it more closely resembles the sheet I want (when I print it in calendar details style), but it has the column with the time which I do not need. So, I tried using the tasks option again, but that did not work because I can't figure out how to get the months to print out, and it only shows the current task, it will not show both that one and the next one. Say for example there was a task that happens on the 1st and 15th of each month. If it was the 20th of the previous month, it would only show the task for the first, it would not show that the same task is going to come up on the 15th also. The reason the print out is so important is because one of the people in my office (there are only 3 of us) is practically computer illiterate, and while he would not use outlook to mark off his tasks, if he had a piece of paper in front of him he would.

Any column in any view that you do not want....

Click the column heading and drag it off.

Unfortunately, I don't see "Detail" view in my Outlook 2000, so I don't know what it looks like.
