Yes, that's what you'll see. Outlook will just start, but it should
regenerate all reminders from scratch in the process.

the only reminder "turn on feature" is at tools, options, other, advanced -
reminders.

Hi,

My reminders only work on messages in my Inbox. The pop-up function does not
work when a reminder is set on a mail in my sent items. I've tried everything
now but only reminders/pop-ups that is set on messages in my Inbox are
working. Is this suppose to be like this or am I doing something wrong?
Please help...

That’s how it works - they only fire in default folders unless you use an
addin. The only addin available is at slovaktech.com.

My problem is different. My Outlook reminders just stopped working
altogether. Let me stop and say that I'm using Outlook 2007 with Windowds XP
SP2 and Office SP2 and Outlook is with a PST file I've tried Outlook.exe
/resetfolders /cleanreminders and each time Outlook reopens with a "There was
a problem reading one or more of your reminders. Some reminders may not
appear." message. Well, not some, none, of reminders appear. Also at the
bottom of each daily calendar page is a message that says "The operation
failed. An object could not be found."

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Charles
