Default Birthday Reminders

Brian-

You seem to be very knowledgeable about the birthday reminders. I am having
a really wierd issue. It seems that sometime, quite often actually, when I
create a new contact with a birthday or anniversary or when I go to an
existing contact and add a birthday, a reminder calendar event is not
automatically generated. Any ideas??

Thanks Brad

I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself correctly. I would like to
suppress the entire event. I just want to use the Birthday field in
Contacts as information, not to create a Calendar event at all. Is
this possible?


I don't think that's possible using the birthday field. In fact, if you
include a birthday in the Contacts record, then remove it from the calendar,
if you later make a change to that contact, the birhday will be readded.
You'll have to use some other, miscellaneous field or enter the birthday as
a notation in the note pane of the contact.
