Folllowing List for Post: What's the difference between "importance" and "priority", and how to I assign a priority level?

Hi Jeff,
Importance is useful for sorting tasks in the list view by high, normal and low importance. By default all new tasks are of "normal" importance. It's really similar to marking emails as low or high importance, if you're familiar with that in Outlook.
Priority on the other hand has to do with the actual order of the tasks in the List view. It's also the default list view. Basically, you can sort tasks by dragging and dropping to change their priority order. So tasks at the top of the priority view are considered highest priority. Everyone who views the folder or project will see the same order when sorting by priority.
Hope this helps.
