POS 2009 Add-In: Populating a Task Pad

I would like to create a custom application that has the ability to maintain the items that are on certain Task Pads within POS 2009. These items would all be regular menu items (ex: hamburger, hot dog, french fries, etc) and not functions.

For example, if a task pad was supposed to allow the cashier quick access to daily specials, then this custom application would need to be able to clear the task pad each day and add the items for that day.

Is this going to be possible? Please provide some guidance.

Thank you, Sean

Hi Jeff,

I really appreciate your taking the time to respond to my post, but i'm not sure if you actually answered m spacific question. I am looking to be able to create a task pad for "Daily Specials" and have that task pad only display the items that are availably that day. I need to be able to setup a 28 day (for example) rotating schedule.

I am prepared to create a custom application that will allow us to maintain this schedule, but I don't know how to have this custom application update a task pad within POS 2009. I need to be able to clear the task pad and then add the items for that day. I have been trying to figure out where the task pads are stored in the database with the idea that I could directly at the database level in a API was not available.

If your original reply did actuall address this, then could you please elaborate?

Thank you, Sean
