Hi,
Using Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2003, I have created a database application
that creates a custom task item for a user with custom fields to be filled
in. Once the task is complete (and the data populated), I want the task
item to be sent to a manager who will have to act on the data that the user
filled in.

Using script attached to the custom task form, I can check that the task is
complete using the Item_Close event, but how do I get it to then send itself
to the manager?

Any help much appreciated.

Take a look at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/forms/routemsg.htm for some
ideas. That link uses mail forms however, which would be better suited for
routing.
