After you call objTask.Save, return objTask.EntryID and save it to a field
in the database record. You can then use that value later with the
Namespace.GetItemFromID method to retrieve the item.

Hi Guys,

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for posting, couldn't find a vbscripting
forum for outlook. Anyway, here goes with my problem. I have some vbscript
which creates a task in outlook from my database program.

Const olTaskItem = 3

Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objTask = objOutlook.CreateItem(olTaskItem)

objTask.Subject = "Schedul a Task"
objTask.Body = "Blah blah blah."
objTask.ReminderSet = True
objTask.ReminderTime = #27/01/2010 12:00 PM#
objTask.DueDate = #27/01/2010 12:00 PM#
objTask.ReminderPlaySound = True
objTask.ReminderSoundFile = "C:\Windows\Media\Ding.wav"

objTask.Save


The code above creates a task fine in my system. However what I would like
is some script to retrieve the unique outlook id of the task created and
save
the details in a text file which I can script an import and parse the data
through into my database.

Any help would be much appreciated -

Kind regards
