Task list - Filter out unassigned tasks

I have created an Assigned Tasks view on a SharePoint task list. I need to be able to filter out any unassigned task. Can someone tell me how to do this. Ideally there would be a value on the Assigned To field that shows it is not assigned to anyway.

    You have 2 options. If your talking about filter in the column drop down then just select the (Empty) option. If you create a view, you can go to the Filter section and add a filter in that says when Assigned to | is equal to | and leave it blank, then that view will return unassigned tasks.

    You could also group your default view by assigned to, and your unassigned will appear at the top grouping. (This is how we do it.)

      Hi Christopher,

       

      Thanks for your reply. I was creating a view and leaving the field blank works perfectly, simple when you know how.

       

      Many thanks

      Ross
