Thanks ken, this fixed my problem.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't just add those switches to my regular
start up?

I don't know why I lost reminders (I don't sync), but it took almost a whole
day (of missed meeting start times!) before I discovered it.

Thanks

Rick

Try starting Outlook with the /resetfolders and /cleanreminders switches. In
the Start, Run dialog:

outlook.exe /resetfolders /cleanreminders

Then press Enter. See if that helps.

Even though my calendar reminder (and reminder.wav sound) is set to on,
none
of my reminders ever pop up on my screen. They used to work, but stopped
recently, and none of the help desk folks here on Robins AFB can seem to
fix
it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In general I wouldn't recommend adding those switches to the normal startup
shortcut, but if you keep having these problems you can reconsider that.
