Remarks

The InsertTask method corresponds to the Insert Task command on the right-click option menu in a list of tasks. The new task is the default mode (manually or automatically scheduled), contains a task ID number, and the Task Name cell is selected with **<Type Task Name Here>**. Each task ID below the new row increases by one.

By comparison, the InsertBlankRow method creates a blank row, where additional task information can be added programmatically. To create a manually scheduled task where the default mode is automatic, use the InsertManualTask method. To create an automatically scheduled task where the default mode is manual, use the InsertScheduledTask method.
