    text
    copied!<p>I have a re-usable out of the box sharepoint approval workflow 2010, and I am programmatically approve/reject workflow using the below code snippet inside infopath formcode (2010).</p> <pre><code>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]); if (isApprove) { ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowOutcome] = "Approved"; ht["TaskStatus"] = "Approved"; ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.Comments] = "Approved by Manager"; ht["Comments"] = "Approved by Manager"; } else { XPathNavigator navigatorRejectComments = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator().SelectSingleNode (XPATH_REJECT_COMMENTS, this.NamespaceManager); ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowOutcome] = "Rejected"; ht["TaskStatus"] = "Rejected"; ht[SPBuiltInFieldId.Comments] = navigatorRejectComments.Value.Trim(); ht["Comments"] = navigatorRejectComments.Value.Trim(); } ht["FormData"] = SPWorkflowStatus.Completed; web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true; isApproveReject = AlterTask(task, ht, true, 5, 100); web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false; </code></pre> <p>Task Alter method</p> <pre><code>private static bool AlterTask(SPListItem task, Hashtable htData, bool fSynchronous, int attempts, int millisecondsTimeout) { if ((int)task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowVersion] != 1) { SPList parentList = task.ParentList.ParentWeb.Lists[new Guid(task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowListId].ToString())]; SPListItem parentItem = parentList.Items.GetItemById((int)task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowItemId]); for (int i = 0; i &lt; attempts; i++) { SPWorkflow workflow = parentItem.Workflows[new Guid(task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowInstanceID].ToString())]; if (!workflow.IsLocked) { task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowVersion] = 1; task.SystemUpdate(); break; } if (i != attempts - 1) Thread.Sleep(millisecondsTimeout); } } return SPWorkflowTask.AlterTask(task, htData, fSynchronous); } </code></pre> <p>This code works fine, but the comments of the task is not getting altered and it is not included in the e-mail as well. Is there anything wrong with ht["Comments"] that I use? It is not getting altered in task comments. This is SharePoint 2010 workflows and infopath form i am using is also 2010.</p> <p>Anyone faced similar problem ?</p>
