Sure, - In OneNote I place the cursor in the row I want to convert to a task. I then click the 'Outlook Tasks' icon in the top menu bar. This then converts this row into a task in Outlook (it takes a minute or so)
I then have MLO setup to synchronise every 30 minutes with Outlook (or I can initiate a manual sync if I want the Outlook task to move to MLO instantly). To sync with Outlook, set this up with the menus in MLO -> Synchronisation - Configure - Outlook. I have a two way sync setup every 30 minutes. It's a basic sync, I don't worry about categories etc as all I want is for the task to appear in my MLO inbox. I can then move around etc within my MLO outline as needed. When the MLO task is marked complete, it will sync with Outlook (every 30 mins as above) , automatically then complete the task in Outlook which then update OneNOte to mark that row with the ✅ icon to indicate completion. This process works even though I've moved the task around in MLO, it uses the MLO task ID, not the location of the task in your outline. Hope that helps, please let me know if you have any questions.
