I just upgraded to Office 2010. My Journal, Calendar, and Task items are set
to link to a contact. In Office 2007 when you open the contact and go to
Activities (Show:All Items) it would list all of the these items. In 2010
all I get are emails. If I swtich to Show: Contacts it will show linked
contacts but showing Journal and Upcoming Tasks/Appointments doesn't displace
any results. To make sure that it wasn't a difference in linking between
2007 and 2010 I have saved new tasks and appointments that are linked back to
the contact but they don't show up in the Activities display. This is a big
enough problem to make me switch back to 2007. Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue. Reinstalled and it still behaves the same.
I am sorry to be harsh, but Microsoft is losing some if its luster.
This should not happen. This is a rather basic flaw and should have
been caught before release.
