MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / May 2005Reminder time set
Fully patched Outlook 2003 running on WINxp home. When tools/options/calendar/default reminder is checked and set at any time it only shows 18 hours when a calendar date is opened. Is there a way to make this work correctly? I want my default reminder to be set at 5 minutes not 18 hours. Thanks in advance. that is the default for all day appointments. It can't be changed. When you remove the check from all day event it should use you default settings.

If you select New->Appointment, you will get your default new appointment (not event) and it should display your default reminder time of 5 minutes.
