            Application myApp = new Application();
            TaskInfos tInfos = myApp.TaskInfos;

            // Iterate through the collection, 
            // printing values for the properties.
            foreach (TaskInfo tInfo in tInfos)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("CreationName:   {0}", tInfo.CreationName);
                Console.WriteLine("Description     {0}", tInfo.Description);
