Unless you're running code on the receiving computer you can't control what
comes back to you in code obviously. If you set the properties on a task request to be notified of task completion and to keep an updated copy of the task then you should be automatically notified if the task recipient accepts the task and then deletes it before it's marked as complete. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.

Thank you for a swift reply.
As I am new to tasks I am trying to understand if I can send a task to a person thinking they will be working on it, only to find at a later date they deleted it as soon as they received it. |

If you send them a task request they can accept or reject it. If rejected
you get a notice and what they do afterwards is up to them, you get nothing. If they accept it and you have those properties set then if they delete it you will be notified, unless possibly they delete it after marking it as complete. Then you might not get notice, I don't recall offhand how that scenario would work. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.
