I am having the same problem too, Outlook isn't generating a birthday
reminder automatically when I create new contacts or import contacts.

You seem to be very knowledgeable about the birthday reminders. My problem
is that Outlook is not always generating a reminder when I put in a birthday
or an anniversary. Do you have any ideas??

Thanks,

Brad

I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself correctly. I would like to
suppress the entire event. I just want to use the Birthday field in
Contacts as information, not to create a Calendar event at all. Is
this possible?

I don't think that's possible using the birthday field. In fact, if you
include a birthday in the Contacts record, then remove it from the calendar,
if you later make a change to that contact, the birhday will be readded.
You'll have to use some other, miscellaneous field or enter the birthday as
a notation in the note pane of the contact.
