Repost with more info - Saving a task to a child folder

[Carol G]

This does not save the new task in the Test folder. In fact it doesn't seem
to be saving anywere.
Thanks for any help.
Carol

Public Sub TaskTest()

Dim objApp As Outlook.Application
Dim MyTasksFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim MyFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim objItm As TaskItem

Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNS = objApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set MyTasksFolder = objNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderTasks)
Set MyFolder = MyTasksFolder.Folders("Test")
Debug.Print MyFolder

Set objItm = objApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)

objItm.Subject = "Test of Task2"
'Debug.Print objItm.Subject
objItm.SaveAs (MyFolder)
Debug.Print objItm.Subject


End Sub

This statement

Set objItm = myFolder.Items.Add

will create a task item that saves in the Test folder. The correct method to save an item is Save, not SaveAs.
