Yes Gavin , You understood, it's what you said... <br>
<br>
And you were right, no value is passing through the container
operation... the strange thing here, is that I've checked the
container of the task that determines the user, and there it is... <br>
<br>
well, I tried to do several container operations without succeeding.. I don't know what's the problem now...<br>
<br>at least thanks for your comments...<br>

Markkos,<br><br>You say that the user can be any user for each run of the workflow,<br>and that this user is determined in the preceding step. If the agent<br>can be literally anyone, then your task may well need to be a general
<br>task.<br><br>However the attribute "general task" belongs at the task level, and if<br>you want the work item to be sent to the user identified in the<br>previous step then that will be assigned at the workflow step level as
<br>an 'Expression' where you insert the name of your container element<br>that contains the user(s). I think that might be what you're doing<br>already but I'm not sure I understood everything that you wrote.<br><br>If the work item is going to everyone then it sounds like the
<br>container element with your agents in is empty. Are you sure the<br>previous step is populating it correctly? To test this you could put a<br>'Container Operation' before your work item step and hard code a user<br>ID into the container element then see if the work item is sent to
<br>that ID.<br><br>HTH,<br>Gavin<br><br>2006/4/11, Markkos <<a href="mailto:markkos@gmail.com">markkos@gmail.com</a>>:<br>> The question is:<br>><br>> How do I have an agent assigned task without having it as a general task?
