EditTaskData Function

Overview

The EditTaskData function takes specified task data, presents the standard edit dialog and then returns the edited result. It does not directly edit a task within the database.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

string[] = EditTaskData ( string caption, string[] task | string task );

Parameters

caption

A string specifying a caption to the dialog.

task

A string structured as a parameter list or as a string array of parameters. If a list, the string must be in the form of “property-name: value”. If in an array then the key name is the property name and data is the array entry. The entries must match the list of property names. See Remarks below.

Return Value

A string array of task data elements. If an error occurs such as cancel, the array will be empty. Use the GetLastError function to determine if an error occurred and the nature of the error. If there are no tasks for the requested location, the last error will be ERROR_EOD.

Remarks

This function presents a dialog for editing. If the task ID is in error, a message box will be displayed and an error returned. Scripts should check the task ID prior to using this function to avoid unwanted message boxes.
