I have created the code below with help from a previous post. I have two
additional questions. (1) Is there a way to mark Noaging to False if
currently True and True if currently False and (2) This code only works if
I'm on a mail item. Is there a way to have it work on a task (or other
items) as well.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sub OnOff()
Dim oMail As MailItem
Set oMail = Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1)

oMail.NoAging = True
oMail.Save
End Sub

1)

oMail.NoAging = (Not oMail.NoAging )

2) All Outlook items support the NoAging property. The problem is that your code assumes that the item selected is a MailItem. Dim oMail as Object instead.

Sue, Thank you very much. Both answers work perfect. While I was waiting
for an answer, I figured out I could use an If Else statement, but this is
much cleaner. Thank you.

Just out of curiosity. The reason I needed the macro is because it wont let
you just click the icon for the do not archive in the mail list and I just
noticed it will on the tasks. Do you know why? Could it be a setting that
I'm not seeing. This may elimanate the need for the macro.

Again, Thanks for your help.

Tasks views are generally set up for in-cell editing by default. Mail views are not.
