Search question - Tasks due before tomorrow

I have refined a search that works for me - with one exception. When I choose due before tomorrow, the actual date is inserted into the search. I would like to save the search as "due before tomorrow" so I don't have to edit the date each time. Is there a way to hard code "tomorrow"?

Type "tomorrow" in the date field instead of choosing a date from the calendar.

Thanks - I swear I tried that. Working great now !

I didn't know one could do that, and having the same kind of issue had found a convoluted workaround using a combinationof other date tests. This is so much simpler!
Suggestion: Why not make it the default that pressing "Today" and "Tomorrow" buttons when creating a saved search actually places the words in the corresponding field, rather than the date? This is probably what most poeple want from a saved search. This message was edited Jan 15, 2011. |

This is probably what most poeple want from a saved search. I think having "today" or "tomorrow" automatically inserted would be confusing. Sometimes that's what I want, but most of the time, I mean today's date or tomorrow's date. Which brings up the issue of the date picker. I've seen other posts identifying the current date picker as awkward, and I agree. It's one of the UI pieces that need improvement badly. I would like to see it revamped into a more intuitive format, which would include some obvious way to select "today" as in Jan 18, and "today" as in the current day. |

Yes, and I'd like it if the tab key moved you through the reminder fields. At present the popup disappears as soon as you tab off the time field. So for keyboarders, you have to use the mouse to get to these fields (if enabled).
