Excuse me. I should have included that. I use Outlook 2007.
Your answer generates other questions: What do you mean by "fire from the
default folders"? Where can I find the file that "holds" the reminders? The
little reminder window is so full that I cannot see all of them at one time
anymore.
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to answer.
