I have created a workflow is SharePoint Designer and associated it with a list. The workflow creates an approval process, so SharePoint creates a task in the Tasks list so t
After a lot of trials and investigation I just had the following code working to approve the task
SPSite site = new SPSite("http://servername/");
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
{
SPList list = web.Lists["TestList"];
SPListItem item = list.GetItemById(22);
SPWorkflow workflow = item.Workflows[0];
SPWorkflowTask task = workflow.Tasks[0];
Hashtable ht = new Hashtable();
ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.Completed] = "TRUE";
ht["Completed"] = "TRUE";
ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.PercentComplete] = 1.0f;
ht["PercentComplete"] = 1.0f;
ht["Status"] = "Completed";
ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.TaskStatus] = SPResource.GetString(new CultureInfo((int)task.Web.Language, false), Strings.WorkflowStatusCompleted, new object[0]);
ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowOutcome] = "Approved";
ht["TaskStatus"] = "Approved";
ht["FormData"] = SPWorkflowStatus.Completed;
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
SPWorkflowTask.AlterTask((task as SPListItem), ht, true);
}
I suspect that ht["TaskStatus"] = "Approved";
is that attribute that solved it. Anyway I will try to narrow on the set of properties that need to be changed.
