Default Reminders Window

In OL 2003, how is the Reminders Window supposed to function? If I click on
View | Reminders Window the pop-up window says "There are no reminders to
show" even though I set a Reminder for later today as a test. If possible I
would like the Reminders Window to show all Reminders, past due and future.
Thank you.

Start Outlook with the switch /cleanreminders. This parameter deletes
all reminders and recreates:

Start | Run | outlook.exe /cleanreminders

If this does not help, start Outlook more with the parameter
/resetfolders

Start | Run | outlook.exe /resetfolders

Thanks Christian. I tried both methods you suggested but the Reminder I set
for 1pm today is still leaving a blank Reminders pop-up window. Any other
ideas?

The Outlook reminders window is non-configurable and will only show
reminders that are due or overdue. There's no way to make it show reminders
due in the future.

Is there an easy way to print a list of those reminders that are due or over
due?
Thank you,

From the Outlook reminders window all you can do is take screen shots.

shameless commercial plug My Reminder Manager addin lets you see future
reminders and group, sort, print, etc. but it's a 3rd party addin and
doesn't come with Outlook /shameless commercial plug

BCM wipes out all reminder settings on items when they synch with its
database. So no, it's not supported with BCM. The beta BCM that goes with
Outlook 2007 so far doesn't wipe out those settings (although it doesn't
synch them) so at this point it works with that version. Of course by the
time RTM arrives they may go back to wiping the reminder settings so I can't
guarantee it will work with the RTM version.
