I am currently running Outlook 2002 and when I right click on any of the
items in the pop up reminder list window it only gives me the option to open
and nothing else.

Dismissing a reminder does not mark an item complete. On the other hand,
marking an item as complete does dismiss the reminder on it. Right-click on
the item in the reminders window and select Mark Complete. That will take
care of both actions at once.

When my reminders pop up and I complete them I click on Dismiss and they
leave the reminder list that has popped up leaving only those that I still
have to do in the list. When I go to my task list, they are still listed
there as if they are still to be done. Why don't they leave the list or
why
don't they become marked as completed since I have dismissed them. Why is
it
a two step process to get rid of them once I have completed them. Is
there a
set up that I have missed somewhere that I can tell it to mark it as
completed when I click Dismiss.

Seems a bit ridiculous that this has to be done in a two step process, why
bother with the dismiss when it leaves it in the task list so there has to
be
something that I am missing.

Any help any one can give is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cyndi
