Hi,

I have succeeded in creating and sending task requests
programatically(with this as reference
http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/archives/mapi-l.html). But I face problems
when I click the accept/decline buttons of the task request. Outlook
2003 crashes when I try to accept/decline. I have gone through the
threads "Accept/Decline Task Request" and "Task Request-Cracked them"
in http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/archives/mapi-l.html but I have no idea
of how to proceed. Any help/suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

There's a typo in the first message I posted there -- the 'link' property
is 0x8519, not 0x851a. If the link stuff isn't set up properly, the
recipient's Outlook can crash like you're seeing, so that's one thing to
check.

Thanks for your quick reply Dan.

I went through all the messages in that thread.
I had changed that property also to 0x8519.
But still I'm having problem.....
I think I'm missing out some other property....
Can u please help me out?

Thanks.

And another doubt I have is whether the task is getting attached to the
task request properly. Is there any property to be set for this other
than those you had mentioned in your posts? I'm doing all these using
WebDAV.

Thanks.

Sorry, I know basically nothing about WebDAV, and attaching messages to
other messages is tricky even with APIs that I do understand.

You could try using MDBView / MFCMAPI to check the mail that the
recipient gets before opening it in Outlook, that would let you make sure
that the attached message is there. (because it's hidden so Outlook itself
won't show it).
