Default Reminder Error Message

I imported 2007 calendar data into Outlook 2007. Now whenever I start up I
get an error message "there was a problem reading one or more of your
reminders. Some reminders may not appear." The problem is, there is nothing
that tells me which reminder is causing the problem so I do not know how to
fix. Any Ideas?

Yes. Don't import. That's one of the results. There is no need to use the
import function when moving data from one Outlook to another. You have most
likely corrupted your mail profile, which is another symptom of importing
data.
Create a new Mail profile in Control Panel-Mail-Show Profiles-Add. Then in
Control Panel-Mail-Data files, add your old pst file to the profile.

WHAT??? - why not correct that problem of importing - because when faced with
upgrading - some of us are completely in need of the calanfdar function and
the info we put into it for legal reasons and can't afford to lose it
whatsoever. so why don't you "software writers" come up with a fix that is
reliable - especially that works from one outlook interfce to another - ie:
when you get into a different car - the steering wheel and peddals are where
they are supposed to be. so why change the abilty to import in the first
place????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????

Hey - don't shoot the messenger. The import/export function is designed to
move Outlook data to and from a NON-pst source, such as to and from Access
or to and from an Exchange Mailbox.
If you follow the instructions he
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...771141033.aspx

You will find that the method is VERY "reliable".....

What makes you think you'd lose your calendar without the ability to import?
It is importing from a previous version of Outlook, in fact, that will cause
you to lose some calendar data (as well as contact data). When updating to
a newer version, simply reuse the data file you have rather than sending it
though a conversion process when none is needed.

so why don't you "software
writers" come up with a fix that is reliable - especially that works
from one outlook interfce to another


You're under the misguided assumption that you're speaking with someone who
can affect how Outlook works. No one here works for Microsoft.
