Default 18 hrs reminder on a new event

Diane
I tried setting the default reminder to 0 minutes, there was no none
option, in Calendar preferences (Outlook 2007) but that only changed the time
for timed calendar items, not events. You seem to be saying that it would
affect both, is that right? If so, I am surprised that a change in time
affects only timed items if the time is other than 0 but both timed and
events if 0. An odd system or have I got the wrong end of the stick? I can
not see any way of changing the events reminder time at all!

I agree totally. The other options as a work around are valid but they
circumvent the basic issue. If calendar reminders are totally
configurable,
why the lack of options for events? A simple default value, including
none, would suffice. Come on Microsoft ...

Could Microsoft please make the 18 hrs reminder on a new event a

woken
up at 6 AM on Sunday by my cell phone reminding me of an event on Monday.
