Hi
When viewing Contacts in the Contact List it would be really handy to see any links to Events or Tasks in the left hand column. Just the same as when you click on an Event you can see the Contacts or Tasks linked to that event.
This would also be really useful when viewing the Tasks list too, only it would be showing Contacts and Events. It would make navigating the data easier.
Cheers!
Brian

Re: Viewing linked items for Contacts
Hi Brian, thanks for the suggestion. I have this on my list of planned improvements and will post a reply when it's finished.
In the meantime, if you're using the latest version you can click a contact in the Contact List and the Details Pane will update to show any items linked to that contact. Linked items in the Details Pane are also clickable. To view the Details Pane, click the "View" menu and make sure the "Details Pane" option has a checkmark.
Thanks again and please let me know if you have any other suggestions.

Ahhh.... it pays to check on the latest version!!
That works a treat when trying to find contacts that have no other links.
Thanks Dan! As always, much appreciated!

Version 2019.01 adds the ability to include a "Links" column in the Event, Task, Note, and Contact Lists. Values in this column can be sorted, filtered, or grouped. More information can be found here:
