Default Customizing Outlook Today: sort by category

Hello,

I've read a little around the web. I figured out how to "extract" the
Outlook Today page and then customize it.

Problem 1: When I use my custom Outlook Today page, the "customize Outlook
Today" button is gone and so I can't change my sort options.

Problem 2: Is there a way to put my sort criteria within the html? That
would eliminate the need for going to the "customize Outlook Today" page. I
like to sort by due date (ascending) and priority (descending).

Problem 3: Is there a way to make the page only show tasks with a certain
Category. Actually, I made three sections for tasks, each for a different
category (Office Tasks, Personal Tasks, Projects). I've identified them like
this:
OBJECT ID="PersonalTaskList"
CLASSID="CLSID:0468C085-CA5B-11D0-AF08-00609797F0E0"
PARAM NAME="Module" VALUE="PersonalTasks"/OBJECT

And then they are called like this:
TABLE border=0 name="TaskCol" cellspacing=0 id=table2
datasrc="#PersonalTaskList" width=95% style="margin-left:8px; display:;"
TBODY
TR
TD width=1px
INPUT TYPE=checkbox DATAFORMATAS="Text" DATAFLD="Complete" height=22px
name="C1" value="ON"/TD
TD width=1pxDIV DATAFLD="Importance" DATAFORMATAS="html"
class=TaskImportance/DIV/TD
TDDIV DATAFLD="Subject" DATAFORMATAS="html"
class=TaskSubject/DIV/TD

Is there a way to call them only if their category is a certain value? I
guess I could make three separate task folders but I'd rather not do this. I
have one task folder, with all my tasks assigned one of three different
categories.

Thank you very much.
