I use VBA code to first add a task then later, find it (Using the [Subject] =
"My subject") and once found, open Outlook in the selected task . It works
fine but only for the user who entered it in the first place. Even though the
tasks are shared, the other users cannot find it, (as described previously)
however calling "Folder.Display", brings up all tasks and the other user can
them see it there, but they will need to find and select the task manually

Note: Each user has his/her own computer and they don't change it. There is
a total of 03 users

TIA
 
What folder do you search the task in?
Do you retrieve the *current* user's default folder using
Namespace.GetDefaultFolder or use Namespace.GetSharedDefaultFolder?

I use the Namespace.GetDefaultFolder. How would it be to call the Shared?

You just pass the default fodler kind (same as GetDefaultFolder) and a
recipeint object returned from Namespace.CreateRecipient.
