If you change that to "match unless ANY criteria are met", you'll get the No due dates plus any incomplete but overdue tasks. There's no way to narrow that down further. (If you're wondering, Entourage actually considers "No due date" tasks to have a date of Jan. 1, 1904 - the beginning of Mac time. That's why there's always at the wrong end of the Tasks list, as if they were wildly overdue. IMO they should be given the date of Feb. 4, 2040, or some date in early 2035 if worried about transferring to Windows ever - which would put them at the correct end of the list - "never, never" off in the future somewhere. I've been saying this for 4 years but there's been no change.) -- Paul Berkowitz MVP Entourage Entourage FAQ Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq/index.html> AppleScripts for Entourage: <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/> PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - **2004**, X or 2001.
