Tools | Options | Other tab | Advanced Options | Reminder Options ... allows
you to disable the display of the Reminder and turn off the reminder notification sound. that's for Outlook 2007 - might be similar for other versions. -- Bill R MVP "Roger Freeman" Roger wrote in message ... Help tells me to go to Options, then select "Advanced" but it doesn't exist in my version.

How can I turn off reminders (no "Advanced" choice)?
I have used this solution (disable reminders) to 'band aid' another issue;
About 476 reminders (all contacts) pop up and cannot be removed from the reminder list. I tried dismissing single reminders, all reminders, opening individual contacts and clearing flags/reminders, marked them 'completed', all to no avail. This issue was in the 2007 pst file, so I brought the problem along when I imported into ost/exchange. The contacts may have been sync'd with a PDA in the past and with outlook 2003. Calendar items are not an issue. Running scanpst or scanost have not worked.

Sounds like a great solution, but it didn't work. Do you have anything up
your sleeve like Start | Run - Outlook /fixthisdarnthing By the way, turning off reminders didn't help. The reminders looped in the background tying up outlook giving me the pointer for 2 secs every 20. Setting reminders to 2 weeks gives me a break though.

Nothing else I can think of. Except a new profile and start from scratch.

Oh well, thanks for the brain strain.
I think I'll export the bad contacts, delete them, then import them (without the hidden info like flags and reminders). At least I won't have to worry about the other 2000 contacts this way.
