[platform-dev] Why aren't my errors in the task list

Good morning all

Background and platform:
I'm evaluating Eclipse as a replacement/upgrade for VAJ.  I'd
installed/upgraded to 2.1.3.  (into directory C:\Eclipse)  I upgraded to
3.0 (renamed C:\Eclipse to Eclipse2.1.3 and creating a new C:\Eclipse.
I'm running WinXP and do not have admin authority.  The client/services
folks keep that for themselves.

Problem:
I'd loaded our existing Java code into 2.1 (put Java code in
C:\projectName and pointed the new Eclipse project, projectName,
thereto) and observed many warnings (~4500).  This information was in
the Task view.  None were listed, as there were too many.  Filtering to
only the current resource gave a smaller list, which was displayed.  I
could navigate from the list to the appropriate line... all is good.

Upgraded to 3.0, created new Eclipse project, pointing it to
C:\projectName.  I see all the code, when I open a resource in the
editor, I see a bunch of yellow rectangles down the left side
(indicating warnings)  But nothing in the Task view.  Well, there is one
entry, as it happened, in a comment in a class, the string XXX was
placed, the one and only item in the Task view is this XXX, it being a
default Task Tag.

According to the documentation
(org.eclipse.platform.doc.user.I20040619.pdf) errors should go there
automatically.
The filters dialog is the default.
So... where are my errors listed?

TIA
Cornell
