How to uncheck "Keep an updated copy of this task on my task list"

I am using VBA to sent an Outlook task to various users from Excel.

Is there a way to set properties so that the two checkboxes on top of the
body section are unchecked by default?

The two checkboxes are:
"Keep an updated copy of this task on my list"
and
"Send me a status report when this task is complete"

Thank you

Even a custom Task Request form doesn't appear to retain those checkbox
values if you uncheck them. I suggest writing some VBA macros or a COM
Add-In that will trap the creation of non-custom Task Request forms and
clear the values from the StatusUpdateRecipients and
StatusOnCompletionRecipients properties. Those properties are empty when
the form loads, but if you clear them on Item_Close it might at least work
the same as clearing the check boxes.
