As I mentioned in my last email about TaskLine, here’s the code I used to create a task in Outlook:
crlf = CHR(13)+CHR(10)
lo = GETOBJECT(,”Outlook.application”)
loSpace = lo.GetNameSpace(“MAPI”)
loTasks = loSpace.Folders(“Mailbox”).Folders(“Tasks”)
loTask = loTasks.Items.add()
loTask.subject = TRIM(synopsis)
loTask.startdate = entdate
loTask.categories = “Automatic Call” && This was done to categorize it faster
lcBody = “ID: ” +LTRIM(STR(callid))+crlf+”Customer: “+ custcode + crlf
lcBody = lcBody + “Status: ” +callstat + crlf
lcBody = lcBody + “Type: ” +calltype+ crlf
lcBody = lcBody + “Severity: ” +severity+ crlf
lcBody = lcBody + “Contact : ” +cntname+ crlf
lcBody = lcBody + “Application: ” +appname+ crlf
lcBody = lcBody + TRIM(calldetl) + crlf
lcBody = lcBody + TRIM(workdetl) + crlf
IF NOT ISNULL(duedate)
loTask.DueDate = duedate
ELSE
lotask.duedate = MAX(DATE()+15,TTOD(entdate)+30)
ENDIF
** This is important because the Task Status is a numeric value
DO CASE
CASE callstat=”Follow-Up”
loTask.Status =4 && Waiting on someone else
CASE callstat=”Call Back”
loTask.Status = 4
CASE callstat=”New”
loTask.Status = 0 && Not Started
OTHERWISE
loTask.Status = 1 && In progress
ENDCASE
loTask.totalwork = 120
loTask.Companies = TRIM(custcode)
loTask.Body = lcBody
loTask.Save()
Then I let TaskLine do the rest.
