sending tasks from an other account

[codeklopper]

I'm developping an Access 2003 application to register tasks/jobs. In addition I want the app to send a task to a collegae from a central mailbox (I have full access to this mailbox) in stead of my own mailbox.

The problem I have to solve is that the tasks are being send from my own mailbox.

the code I'm using:

Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Function makeTask()
Dim OutlookApp As Outlook.Application
Dim outlookTask As Outlook.TaskItem

Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set outlookTask = OutlookApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
With outlookTask
.Recipients.Add (getEMail)
.Owner = "nameOfMailbox"
.subject = getSubject
.Body = getOmschrijving
.ReminderSet = False
.DueDate = getDateEnd
.Assign
.Save
.Display
End With
Debug.Print outlookTask.DelegationState
End Function


Does anybody know how to save the task in the central mailbox and send it from this mailbox?

Sorry if this reply is late.

CreateItem will always create the item in the default folder for that item. To create an item in a non-default folder, you need to walk the folder hierarchy and use MAPIFolder.Items.Add to create a new item in that folder.

I'm not sure if that will solve your problem about sending the task from your mailbox, however. You may need to logon to your Outlook session as the user you want the task to be sent from.
