Using Labels??? for Timetracking/Grouping

I am using Outlook 2003, and I have updated my color labels according to
types of projects. I would like to pull out reports of time spent on various
projects -- and I believe a previous colleague had used labels (and possibly
the journal? function) or maybe JUST labels in order to pull some sort of
report?

Does anybody have any idea of something like this using Labels OR any other
Outlook time-tracking feature? THANKS

I tend to use categories for this purpose. Then I can group, sort, etc., by
those categories. I can also use the same categories for emails,
appointments, tasks, etc.
 
Labels are only views of the calendar information. You would be hard
pressed to pull reports from just the calendar coloring view.

Bob, Milly -- Thanks to both of you.

How would you suggest that I track my time in Outlook then? Using
Categories? I'd like to be able to pull information based upon scheduled
activities!

Thanks.
