Hi there,

I have a problem with my tasks in Ol2003. I will create and save a new task
and OL says following:

"Please save the task order by clicking Save Task Order on the Actions menu
in the "Tasks" folder. The viel must not be filtered or grouped for Save Task
Order to be available. Could not complete the operation. One or more
parameter values are not valid."

I am using XP and OL2003 with Exchange 2000 and the option "cached Exchange
Mode".
I tried to create a new task-folder, copied all tasks to the new task folder
and it worked. but I cannot delete the old task folder, which one the system
created.
is it a damaged task-foler-file on the exchange? in the db?
how can I repair a task folder on an exchange 2000 server?

thanks a lot
rene
 
What happens if you choose Actions | Save Task Order as the prompt suggests?
 
I had a similar problem.

I was unable to create new tasks in the default folder, however i was able to create a new subfolder and save all items there. This is far from optimal so i did some troubleshooting.

Running the command "outlook.exe /resetfolders" worked much better.

i was now able to save all the items i wanted in the default folder.
