Is there a program out there for my Dash that allows tasks to rollover to the next day if they are not completed? I use AgendaOne and that program does not allow it. When I asked them if they could ever implement it, they said they couldn't because Outlook does not allow it.

When I was using my Palm Treo syncing with Outlook, I used Agendus and that allowed rollover tasks, so I'm not sure what to make of AgendaOne's claim.

Anybody have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.

When you say "rollover", do you mean the due date automatically changes? I don't know of a WM application that will do that.

Yeah, I get "floating" or rollover is the best way I can describe it.

For instance, if I have 5 tasks that are due today but I was never able to complete them, at midnight, they would automatically float over to the next day instead of me manually changing the due date.

Interesting.... Should the due date really change? I mean, it was still due yesterday. It's just 1 day past due now. That's how Outlook handles them, IIRC. I guess it all comes down to what you're using Tasks for. I don't use them, becuase I just need more of a To-Do list. So I use OneNote Mobile for that.

I know that if I have a task with no due date, Papyrus (and Facade in conjunction with Papyrus) will show it for the current day, rolling it over until I check it off. I'm not sure how it works with due dates, but it may be worth checking out.
