This article was previously published under Q240327 SYMPTOMS
When you save and close a new Outlook Task item, the Subject field is missing.
CAUSE
After you typed the Subject you opened the Insert Contact dialog box by pressing ALT+C.
RESOLUTION
Choose one of the following workarounds.
- Open the Insert Contacts dialog box by clicking the Contacts button in the new task. Inserting the contact information in this way does not cause the Subject field entry to be lost when you click Save and Close in the task.
- Enter the Contact information for the task before you type the Subject. This method will retain the Subject no matter how you insert contacts information (either using a mouse click or with ALT+C keyboard commands).
