Calendar reminders not showing - how can i identify error?

I had been struggling with this to no avail for the past month... and then it
"fixed itself". I had unloaded and reloaded Office and did all the tricks
mentioned above, and then today when I was moving folders to archive PST's
and opening and closing them and Outlook in the process, I then suddenly got
a reminder for all my back reminders it had missed... mostly from the past
month, but also ones from the past it had apparently not read too, some from
over 100 weeks ago... Beats me what that means, but I now am getting
current reminders again! Phil

I fixed the problem by opening outlook calander and in the search engine in
the top right corner of the calander I put the name of the reacurring
appontment and the search found found the appointment then I deleted it and
then it disapeared. I did again for to the next three appontments and the
problem stopped.

When I open my Outlook I have Always same 4 reminders that come up and say
due Now. When I try to dismiss or open it says cannot turn off reminder.
Cannot locate recurrence information for this reminder.

I also have Vista and Office 2007, I get a reminder about a reoccuring event
that I deleted from Outlook, but the reminder constantly appears a message
indicating it cannot find the reminder and i may see it again. I use Qwest
for my service provider and suspect this calendar event it may be on the host
server. I use Outlook for all of my calendar events. I tired the suggestions
in this help file and so far, i can't remove the reminder.
