Assigning Outlook Tasks

[Rhythm]

Hi everyone.

I'm hoping someone can help me.

I'm creating a database which will be used for keeping
track of Customers, Orders & Shipments.

When a customer has placed an order, I would like to be
able to hit a button within their order record which would
open a "new task" in Outlook, and insert the details of
the customer's order {customer name, address, project
number, product etc.}. I know it's possible, I just don't
know how to create the code for it. Any suggestions?

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but it may
help a little bit. Go to MVP Arvin Meyer's site and look
for the downloads entitled "StartOutlookForms"
and "OutlookForms2K."

You may need to set a reference to your current version of
Outlook. You may be able to study his code and adapt to
your needs.
