Default Outlook Reminders Error

Thank you - I missed this solution before trying my own - - I somehow missed
the notifier that you had answered.

My final solution is in:

The calendar was exported to a ".csv" file.
Next all appointments were deleted (View - arrange by - current view - by
category - collarse all - delete)
Outlook was closed and reopened, there was an application hang upon closing
The calendar was imported from the ".csv" file

Final result: All appointments were restored, with reminders. All recurring
events became single events.

The end user is now happy.

Set the calendar to Active Reminders and see if that item is listed, if so
delete it. If not then try Recurring Appointments view and see if it's there
in that view. If that works then delete the item also from Deleted Items,
exit Outlook and restart it again with /cleanreminders as well as
/cleanfreebusy (outlook.exe /cleanreminders /cleanfreebusy) and see if
you're good to go then. Do that before taking any drastic actions.

No luck - although it did seem to help clear out 11 entries. The next step
that I read about is saving, deleting, and restoring the calendar ... it
sounds like a high-risk choice.
