Default Can't dismiss reminder

Every time I start Outlook, I get a calender reminder that is now 23 weeks
old that I never initiated. When I try to dismiss it, I get a message
stating that it can't be dismissed because parameters are missing. If I try
to set the reminder for two weeks, it doesn't matter - it will pop up the
next time I start Outlook. Any ideas?

Default Can't dismiss reminder

Display your calendar in table view and sort by the Reminder field. Find
your errant appointment and either remove the reminder or delete the
appointment. (Add the reminder column via field chooser)

Default Can't dismiss reminder

I attempted to find the errant reminder, but it doesn't exist in table view
or any other view. I was able to solve the problem though by looking threads
of similar issues wit reminders. I used the "cleanreminders" approach, and
it seems to have worked. Thank you for your help.
