Entourage X: creating a new message from a new task

Running Entourage X SR1:

The idea is this:

I create a new task - fill it all out, then I wanna goto the scripts menu
and invoke a script that will take certain info from the task and create a
mail message.

The trouble is how do I access the open task - I can't

set x to selection

because it isn't selected anywhere in any list. the only reference I could
find for it would be:

set x to Window 1 (being always the front most window)

trouble is all that does it set x to the task name - as text but not the
class of the window or an ID, so that's useless.

Now I know I can close the task and select it in the tasks window then
invoke the script, but is there a way to do it with it open?

I could also

set x to last task

and this will work allowing that the u are doing this on a new task but not
if u have an older task open.
