You can sort the list on any column by clicking the column
heading (the column used for sorting the list displays a
triangle in the heading). If you sort by status, active tasks
are listed before completed tasks. Or, you can filter your list

specific category. When your list is filtered, the filter drop-
down list indicates which category is selected. Overdue tasks
are displayed in red, bold text.
