Default Cannot turn off default reminder

Diane,

Thanks.

Do you have the calendar linked with Access?


No. We have a straightforward setup of Exchange 2007 / Outlook 2007.

It is definitely Outlook setting the reminder. I can set my phone on silent
for reminders, but then I will not get any reminders- even the ones I want.

Would you confirm that this is not a general problem, and is something
specific to our setup.

Are you sure Outlook is setting the reminder and not the PDA?

Can you set the pda to not wake on reminders? This will prevent the 23:45
reminder from firing.

Anyone got any ideas?

Is this a problem specific to us, or is it a general problem with
Access/Exchange?

Thanks,

Diane,

Thanks for your reply.

it wouldn't be a calendar rule, but a new message rule in tools, rules
and alerts.

That is what I meant.

Exchange 2007, Outlook 2007

I have unticked the default reminder box under Tools | Options |
Calendar. If I now send an Appointment or Meeting Request no
reminder is put in, but if I receive an Appointment or Meeting
Request that has no reminder it is saved with a reminder 15 minutes
before (or whatever my default reminder time was before I unticked
the default reminder box).

This is particularly annoying for All Day Appointments if the
reminder is set to 15 minutes before and you have a PDA or Windows
Mobile Device that then reminds you at 23:45pm!

Is this a known bug or am I missing something?

Thanks for any help.

Adrian
