I have a daily requirment that I always forget, so I have an daily
"appointment" set up so a reminder will come up on the screen.
Unfortunately, this appoinment shows up on every day of my calendar,
cluttering the screen. Can I "hide" the appointment as I only need
the active reminder? Or, is there another way to have an alarm go
off on my screen?

In addition to VInce's suggestion, there are tons of freeware alarm clocks
that can be downloaded from the Internet.
