How to Set Priority or Importance on MAPITask object

[loinguyen216]

Hi,

I downloaded an evaluation of Aspose.Email and played around with the MAPITask. I can set almost every property like “Subject”, “Body”, “Reminder” and “Status” just like Outlook. However, looks like there is no property I can set for “Priority” or “Importance” on this MAPITask class. Is there anyway I can set the “Priority” or “Importance” just like Outlook value for “High”, “Low” or “Normal”?

This is my current codes.

Task tsk = new Task();

MapiTask task = new MapiTask();

task.Subject = strSubject;

task.Body = strNotes;

task.StartDate = dtStartDate;

task.DueDate = dtDueDate;

task.DateCompleted = dtCompletedDate;

task.PercentComplete = 100;

task.ReminderSet = bReminderSet;

task.ReminderTime = dtReminderDate;

task.Save(msgSavePath, TaskSaveFormat.Msg);

Thanks.

Hi Loi,

Thank you for contacting Aspose support team.

This feature can be achieved by setting the property using MapiMessage in conjunction with MapiTask as shown in the following sample code.

//Task tsk = new Task();
MapiTask task = new MapiTask();
task.Subject = “strSubject”;
task.Body = “strNotes”;
task.StartDate = new DateTime();
task.DueDate = new DateTime();
task.DateCompleted = new DateTime();
task.PercentComplete = 100;
task.ReminderSet = true;
task.ReminderTime = new DateTime();
MemoryStream memStr = new MemoryStream();
task.Save(memStr, TaskSaveFormat.Msg);
MapiMessage mapi1 = MapiMessage.FromStream(memStr);
Int64 iMapiProperty = 2;//0:LOW, 1:NORMAL, 2:HIGH
MapiProperty prop = new MapiProperty(MapiPropertyTag.PR_IMPORTANCE, BitConverter.GetBytes(iMapiProperty));
mapi1.SetProperty(prop);
mapi1.Save(“TestMapiTask2.msg”);
