Sub AcceptTask() 
 
 Dim myNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace 
 
 Dim myTasks As Outlook.Folder 
 
 Dim myNewTaskItem As Outlook.TaskItem 
 
 Dim mytaskreqItem As Outlook.TaskRequestItem 
 
 Dim myItem As Outlook.TaskItem 
 
 
 
 Set myNameSpace = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI") 
 
 Set myTasks = myNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox) 
 
 Set mytaskreqItem = myTasks.Items.Find("[Subject] = ""Meeting w/ Nate Sun""") 
 
 If Not TypeName(mytaskreqItem) = "Nothing" Then 
 
 Set myNewTaskItem = mytaskreqItem.GetAssociatedTask(True) 
 
 Set myItem = myNewTaskItem.Respond(olTaskAccept, True, True) 
 
 myItem.Send 
 
 End If 
 
End Sub
