Outlook birthday reminder
Hello
I set a birthday on nearly all my contacts, and love this feature. But i have a small problem when you add a birthday to a contact a appointment is made in your calender which is nice. But it also set a reminder on the appointment which i dont want. And it seems there is a bug in outlook, if you disable default reminders in the tools menu you still get reminders on birthdays. The reminder will be the last accepted value in the tools menu. So what i done for now is set it to 4 hours default reminder - hit apply - disable it - hit apply... So now i have 4 hours reminder on birthdays. I would love a fix that could remove this bug. If default reminders is set to disable there should be no reminders on birthdays as well! Best regards Mads |

Outlook birthday reminder
Hey Peter
Thanks for the link, ill will definitely try that program. But it still don’t solve the problem with office. It should not add a reminder when default reminder is turned off. So this should be fixed asap! Best Regards Mads "Peter Marchert" wrote: Hello Mads, Outlook always creates a birthday and a reminder.

Outlook birthday reminder
If you deactivate the option "Reminder" on the tab "Settings" and do
not change the default option "Adapt calendar automatically" on the tab "Options" no reminder will be created when you add a birthday in your contacts. Outlook itselfs will not provide this function even if the default reminder is turned off. Peter On 21 Okt., 21:07, Soxiz wrote: Hey Peter Thanks for the link, ill will definitely try that program.
