Hi everyone! I am tinkering with using an Excel spreadsheet to hold all of my next actions, and I have a quick (and probably easy) question.

I have my NA's entered with the context in one column...

It just didn't work for me. I felt really out of control and like I needed to really master it before I would feel "safe" and that I was getting the right stuff done. I noticed that the stuff that...

Any former Life Balance users out there who can give some advice on getting my info exported back to Outlook/Palm Task list? I tried LB and really thought it would work for me, but it's really not. ...

My @waitingfor list is always my longest because of the nature of my job (I manage a lot of volunteers). When I go over my list, I find that some of the items are pretty stale and feel like I should...

It's been a while since I used it, but Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing is THE BEST. And I have seen it in stores and on Amazon. I highly recommend it. I used it as a child because it seemed so much...

I was reading something interesting on the other half of the GTD Forum, and the person said that they had categories for each of their projects in addition to their context categories.

It occured...

Jamie:

I can really relate to a couple of your difficulties and just wanted you to know that there's someone else out there dealing with some of the same stuff. My manager responds to feedback in...

Yes, but I hadn't actually noticed that until you pointed it out :oops:
Do you know how we can add the headers too?

Thank you!

Dear Bill or any interested Macro Wizard:

I'd love to tweak our macro code to copy the text of the e-mail into the task rather than including the e-mail as an attachment. This would allow me to...

This is a great idea! I realized, for example, that I need to tickle myself to start shopping much earlier next year. I live in Florida and find myself waiting for it to get cold before I start...

Life Balance looks pretty amazing. Can it synch to Outlook, or just to its own Windows based program? We use Outlook at my office...

I am interested in incorporating some of Covey's ideas about importance into my GTD practice. I'm getting a lot done, but, a lot of what? I am interested to know if readers of this board have...

Great sites - thanks for the reference. For anyone who's interested, this is the answer I found:

How can I export calendar items in bulk from Outlook 2000 to a vCalendar format for import into a...

Looks like we're still running Outlook 2000. I don't see that as an option. Thanks for the help though.

I had a brainstorm today when I was going over our organization's meeting calendar. We have 30 board members who have to manually input the paper meeting calendar that we give them into their...

I figured out how to stop the alert noise, but I haven't been able to keep that little envelope from showing up in my system tray when I have new e-mail. Does anyone know where to turn that off? ...
