Default Outlook should support 'fifth' week in monthly recurring patterns

I have appointments on every odd Wednesday each month. i,e, the first, third
and (if it exists) fifth Wednesday each month.
Outlook allows me to schedule reminders for days in the first, second,
third, fourth, or last week of a month, but not the fifth. Can this be fixed?

Bruce,

I believe you are referring to reoccurrence of the meeting and not
reminders. If you setup reoccurrence and select monthly on Wednesday and
last week that would be considered the 5th week.

Francine,

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I am referring to reoccurrence of the meeting and not reminders.
Unfortunately, using last week would not work, because most months only have
four Wednesdays and my appointments do not occur on the fourth Wednesday.

I would take a look at WS Repeat Appointment that allows more flexibility in
scheduling odd meeting days/dates. Available from Websetters - they have a
free 30 day trial.
