How do I convert outlook “to-do” items to “tasks”
I often use the left click to flag an important item that I can't answer at the moment but need to come check again after I finish my email and decide its priority.
I have noticed that as I finish these items. There is no history of it. I have discovered I can only view completed items for "tasks". "to-do" items disappear upon completion.
Is there a way to have the default behavior for red flagging an item be to add it to "tasks"? If not, how do I convert a "to-do" to a "task"?

Flagged emails in the Task view are only visible when you select the 'To-Do List' in the tree on the left side (as seen at help.med.unc.edu/training/microsoft/outlook2010/tasks/overview ).
If your completed flagged emails do not show up in the 'To-Do List' you may have to customize your view to show all tasks that are marked complete.
