Default Anniversaries and Birthdays

I have birthdays or anniversaries entered for a few contacts in OL 2003. Is
there a way to get reminders in advance without setting up a "recurring
appointment" for each?

Default Anniversaries and Birthdays

If the birthdays are added to the contact, outlook normally auto-generates
the recurring appointment. Otherwise, the only way to be reminded is by
setting a flag on the contact for a reminder on or near the date of the
birthday. You'll need to reset it each time.
