Assign an existing Outlook task to someone else (2000/2002/2003)
If you've created a task for yourself, but then want to assign it to someone else, it's easy. For example, it's decided that a project team member will take over some of your previous responsibilities, so you need to reassign some existing tasks. To begin, click on the Tasks folder in the Folder List (click on the Tasks icon in the Navigation Pane in 2003), and then double-click on the task you want to reassign. Click the Assign Task button on the Task form's Standard toolbar. Next, enter a recipient in the To text field. Enter text in the message area of the form, and adjust the Due Date and Start Date if necessary. Select the Keep An Updated Copy Of The Task On My Task List and the Send Me A Status Report When The Task Is Complete check boxes only if you'd like to stay informed of the task's status. Change the Priority and % Complete settings as well where needed. Click Send, and the recipient receives the task request. Once the recipient accepts the task, you receive a message stating that the recipient accepted it. When you open the message, the task updates accordingly in your Task list.
Finding the right size units for your CSS layouts
CSS gives you a lot of power over the various graphical dimensions of your page, such as borders. But to wield this power, you need to figure out which values CSS allows. In a previous tip, we showed you the importance of specifying the correct units. There are three units you can use for size, as follows:
em is equal to the font size of the relevant font.
ex is equal to the size of a lower case "x" in the relevant font.
px is equal to one pixel.
Note that the first two are based on whatever font would apply to the element affected by the style. To find out more about the units CSS accepts for size, visit: www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/syndata.html#value-def-length.
