TaskRequestItem Object

Description

Represents an item in an Inbox (mail) folder. A TaskRequestItem object represents a change to the recipient's Tasks list initiated by another party or as a result of a group tasking.

Using the TaskRequestItem Object

Unlike other Outlook objects, you cannot create this object or find an existing one in the Items collection. It is created automatically when you apply the Assign method to a TaskItem object to assign (delegate) the associated task to another user. The following example creates a simple task and assigns it as a task request to another user.

Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
myItem.Assign
Set myDelegate = myItem.Recipients.Add("April LaMonte")
myItem.Subject = "Prepare Agenda For Meeting"
myItem.DueDate = #9/20/97#
myItem.Send

Use the GetAssociatedTask method to return the TaskRequestItem object, and work directly with the TaskItem object to respond to the request.
