I'd like to know how to express the sentences the I wrote in Italian.
I do mind you smoking in the office.
I will have him call you.
I'd better have him contact you.
I will have the work done as soon as possible
They had the robber arrested
It was tough to get him to confess.
It takes more than a speech to get the girl to make a commitment.
you make me proud.
It makes everyone happy.
Thanks.

Hi John!
I do mind you smoking in the office. - Mi da fastidio che fumi in ufficio (without any context)
If this is the answer to "Do you mind if I smoke in the office?" The conversation would sound like:
- Ti dispiace se fumo in ufficio?
- In realtà si, mi dispiace. (Actually yes, I do mind!)
I will have him call you. - Ti farò chiamare da lui
I'd better have him contact you. - Preferirei fosse lui a contattarti
I will have the work done as soon as possible - Finirò il lavoro al più presto
They had the robber arrested - Hanno fatto arrestare il ladro
It was tough to get him to confess. - E' stato difficile farlo confessare
It takes more than a speech to get the girl to make a commitment. - Ci vuole più delle parole per fare prendere un impegno a una ragazza (with more context the sentence could be better :D)
you make me proud. - Mi rendi orgoglioso/a
It makes everyone happy. - Fa/Rende tutti felici
Hope this helped!
