    Excel to set tasks in outlook

    Hello,

    I am having a small problem. I want to use excel to update the tasks in outlook. All I have is a due date (from A2) and a task (from B2) Here is the code I have got so far

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    Which is all working well. However, it doesn't recognize if a task already exists then don't re-enter it. Every time the Macro is ran, it is doing all the tasks over again, instead of just adding the new tasks.

    I hope that make sense and im sure its an easy fix but im not a programming wiz. any help would be great as i need this asap

    many thanks

    Hello carloskev,

    Welcome to the Forum!

    I amended your macro to look for the Task using the subject and due date. If it exists then it won't be added again.
