How I can realize a wait task using LiveLink? For example I want wait 2 days before the successive task will go in the TaskList of a user.
 
I guess that this is a workflow question. From memory, there is nothing in the WF modules at the mo that will do this, but you have the following options :

1. Use an Event Handler
2. Create your own Custom Node type
3. User XML Export/Import to move the delay to another system for the duration required.
4. Update the LL DB using LAPI/SQL to amend the dates in the task table.

 
Are you talking about the TaskList and Tasks function
in livelink or Workflow in livelink.
As ggriffith mentioned
i)From 9.2 onwards there is a new item handler step you can configure to run at a pre-set interval
ii)If you know Oscript you can write your own customagent that is an orphan of the notification agents that livelink uses to notify people.A rudimetary version posted by me is in knowledge base.If you search for customagent in the workflows discussion grpup you will find it.

If you rae talking about tasklist I think everything is stored in dtree.You may have to examine that.

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?
