This morning a reminder for an all-day event (a birthday) again woke up me
and my husband at 6 a.m. when the alarm went off on my phone. This happens
too often -- and it took me forever to figure out why I was getting waked up
by alarms I dont' set at 6 a.m.

Who on earth would want an automatic reminder at 6 a.m. the previous day?
Why hasn't this been fixed? What's even more frustrating is that when you go
out of your way to disable that inane default, the next time you edit
ANYTHING about the event, the awful 6 a.m. alarm automatically returns,
without you doing anything to set it.

I'm hoping that if Windows won't fix this obvious bug, the Palm Pre will be
a better alternative to this Windows nonsense.

There is no such setting. Many people have asked for one.

I have set normal calendar markings to alarm 15 minutes before the actual
event but all day events are causing problems by alarming 18 hours before.
I'd like to change them to remind just a couple hours before, not 18 hours,
but I couldn't find a setting which could change all day events reminder
time, is it even possible? I'm using Office XP ja Outlook 2002 with Windows
XP Pro.
