Interesting request. If you are using Exchange Server you maybe able to connect to that server and create tasks ad hoc, though I am not entirely sure.

Here are a few resources:

Hey Thanks for the prompt response.
The second link gives some insight, but again its base on Win App.

I would be really obliged if someone could help me out to achieve this in a Web App.

Thanks in Advance

Well, i think, you need to be a bit more specific in so far as, where do you want the task to go from your web app? Is this a situation where a user comes to your application and you are going to add a task to outlook on THEIR machine?

Hi,

The scenario is that a web application has to send a task to the selected recipients and also add that task to the calendar.
This task is sent on manual intervention.

Thanks

I am not sure if this can be done from a web application unless, again, you are working with an Exchange server. The problem lies in you want to add the task to an outlook calendar on X users machine and this, I don't think, can be done directly from a web app.

Depending on the level of sophistication desired, you could try investigating the vCal standard of sending calendar bookings via email.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VCal as a starting point.
