I would like that the task appears in the Activities tab, but I only get to create the task in the session, can´t associate with the current contact form. How I can do that? I was trying to link the Task Item with the contact form bu that don´t seems to work. Thanks for your help. Yannick |

You need the contact as a ContactItem. Then get the Links collection of the
new task item and add that ContactItem to the Links collection of the task using the Links.Add method. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Thanks I was traying to do the opposite.
But my new code doesn´t seems to work neither. Set myTask = Application.CreateItem(3) myTask.Subject = "..." myTask.DueDate #17/08/09# myTask.Save Set colLinks = myTask.Links colLinks.Add(Item) How I get the current form as a ContactItem is not enough with Item?

Item should work if the item is a contact item. Form code is VBScript, so it
only has Variant objects and you can't create a ContactItem reference. Does it work if you use it as a function: Set colLinks = myTask.Links Set oLink = colLinks.Add(Item) -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Same error. I don´t know what is the problem, because the Item is like
Item.Contact.MyForm, that should work. Thanks again. "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: Item should work if the item is a contact item.
