Reminders in Calendar wont set

[David Thomas]

Hi All,
This is my first time trying here, bit desperate to find
answer. When I set a new appointment in my Calendar, and
try and set reminder, it now gives me the following error
message:

"The reminder for "whatever appointment" will not appear
because it is not in your Calendar or Tasks folder. Is
this Ok? Yes or No"

If I select No, then it stays there waiting for me to do
something, if I select yes, then it saves it in the
Calender with the little reminder symbol showing but does
not remind you.

I have scoured the knwoledge base, outlook help etc, and
cannot seem to find this problem.

Any ideas out there? Fingers crossed.

cheers
David Thomas

Out of the box reminders only will fire from the default Inbox,
Calendar, Tasks or Contacts folder. In all other folders you only get
the item turning red when overdue.
