If you already have a task item why are you going through hoops to get
another instance of the same task item that way? Why not just copy the
passed task item or create a new one or use NameSpace.GetItemFromID() to
retrieve another instance of the task item if you can get its EntryID
property?

Hi all.

In other words, how to implement the method GetTaskFromIntPtr in the
code below?

using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;

...

public void Method1(Outlook.TaskItem task)
{
IntPtr ptr = Marshal.GetIUnknownForObject(task.MAPIOBJECT);
Outlook.TaskItem task1 = GetTaskFromIntPtr(ptr); //
GetTaskFromIntPtr - ?
}

public Outlook.TaskItem GetTaskFromIntPtr(IntPtr)
{
????
}

Hello Ken!
It is only sample. Actually, I'm trying to get updated TaskItem from
TaskRequestUpdateItem. I assume, that TaskItem is in the
olEmbeddeditem attachment of TaskRequestUpdateItem. The sequence of
operations is:

1) Get the attachment of TaskRequestUpdateItem
2) Get the PR_ATTACH_DATA_OBJ of attachment (using Extended MAPI,
IMAPIProp.OpenProperty) - so I have an IntPtr of the attachment
object. I am almost assured that there is a TaskItem. But how to wrap
it with Outlook.TaskItem interface I don't know.

I need exactly OOM Outlook.TaskItem interface (not IMessage etc.).
