Outlook 2007 Assigned Tasks not Updating Automatically
Hi Guys,
My problem is Outlook 2007, is not updating the Assigned Tasks Automatically.
When an assigned task is updated, I receive an email to update my copy of the task. This function in 2003 only updated if you clicked on the message, however in 2007 which I have, it is suppose to automatically update, and it is not.
I've put in the latest Office SP, still not working.
Is there a way to correct this, OR a script in VBA that can be implemented to automatically open the message and update the task, and then delete message?
I've seen some experts contribute scripts to auto accept/ respond, so if possible to script an auto update, that would solve my issue.
thanks
Joe

After not getting any comments I kept looking for a solution. I ended up modding some code and figured out how to identify task related items in the inbox, then testing the script until it did what i needed.
Hope this helps someone else, too

Let's start by checking an option. Click Tools > Options > Task Options. Is the box labeled "Keep updated copies of assigned tasks on my task list" checked? If not, please check it then create and assign a task and have the assignee update it. Let me know what happens.
