 I have version indicated in the post.

Have I to update ?
What version next ?


My question now is this :

Is possible to create a link to a tdl file and task inside ?
By example a task is : Repair windows


Can I open the tasklist by that task ?

How ?

Best Regards

Note : This may be equivalent to open a doc file by a marker, or enter in an excel file by a field

7.1.3.3. Always update to the latest version via 'Help > Check for Updates'. You can automatically enable this in the preferences:

Yes. 

1. Enable 'tdl://' support 


2. Select the task you want to create a link to
3. 'Edit > Copy As > Task Link (full)'
4. Right-click on the Windows Desktop
5. 'New > Shortcut'
6. Browse to your installation of ToDoList.exe
7. Add ' -l ' (lowercase L) after the path
8. Paste the copied link after the ' -l '

9. Click 'Next' and give it a name.

Done both things !!!!!!

I have done a little differente because I don't need a shortcut. Is for my CRM to put a link.

The final result was
Y:\PORTABLES\Oficina\ToDoList\ToDoList.exe -l tdl://Y:\GABINETE\PROYECTOS\MODELOS\CONTROL\TaskLists\Comandante.tdl?139

And works fine.

Best Regards
