 Change the Tasks Stutus field select options???

Hi,

On the Outlook 2000 Tasks form there is a Status combo box field that has
five options (Not Started, In Progress, Completed, etc.).  How can I change
or add to the combo box selections???

Those options, like all the drop-down lists built into Outlook forms, are
coded into the program and cannot be changed. Also, the Status property only
allows certain values -- those corresponding to the drop-down choices.

Not that I need to know, but are the status values language-specific?

This would be problematic for localizing your application in different
languages...

The values for the Status property are all numeric.
