Hello, I'm a french student so excuse me if my english isn't very good!!

I'm currently working on a plugin for msn and i've seen that Messenger Plus offer a task scheduler.

Is it possible, with the appropriate API, to get the alerts of this task scheduler ?

Thank for your help

No, it is not available by the Plus! API, but you can get all the information from the registry:

• HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Schedules
    MaxCount (REG_DWORD) => Holds the number of items in the schedule table
  
  
• HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Schedules\Schedule0
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Schedules\Schedule1
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Schedules\Schedule2
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Schedules\etc...
  => subkeys holding all the info about a particular schedule item
  
    DateHigh (REG_DWORD) => Most significant number of the date type
    DateLow (REG_DWORD) => Least significant number of the date type
    TimeHigh (REG_DWORD) => Most significant number of the time type
    TimeLow (REG_DWORD) => Least significant number of the time type
    Description (REG_SZ) => Description
    Program (REG_SZ) => Path/file
    Status (REG_DWORD) => Status flag
      0: online
      1: busy
      2: be right back
      3: away
      4: on the phone
      5: out to lunch
      6: appear offline
      20: personalised status 1
      21: personalised status 2
      22: personalised status 3
                     etc...
      99: status is not set => Program or Description must be set!
    Repeat (REG_DWORD) => Repeat flag
      1: once
      2: every day
      3: every week
      4: every month
      5: every year

And related to the alert popups of the scheduler:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\<user_email>\Preferences
SchedulerMaxRecall (REG_DWORD) => Number of times an alert will be repeated if the user doesn't explicitly dismiss the notification popup. Set this value to 0 to disable repeated notifications. Note that notifications are not repeated if the schedule was missed too far in the past. Default value is 3. (also see: http://www.msgplus.net/help_registry.php)

Thanks a Lot
