when using my outlook calander I put in phone calls I need to make. when I
cannot make that call I get a reminder that pops up. The pop ups I get now
all lumped togther and I want to create invidual pop up reminders rather than
being all lumped together

Outlook 2003 does not support multiple popup reminders.  All due reminders
are displayed in a single popup.

I have been searching for a way to separate Outlook reminders. So far nothing
fruitfull. I think that the Reminders window should at the very least be
resizable.

User Outlook 2002 or earlier.  They had separate reminder windows.

I understand that the newest versions don't support it. But what I don't
understand is; Why can't you resize the 1 window they do give you.

Because it is not resizable, period, by design.

That's not very nice, Milly.

I agree it's dumb that this dialog is not resizable. Ken Slovak has an
add-in that replaces the built in reminders window that is resizable.

I agree; not nice......

but back to discussion; especially with screens having higher & higher
resolutions the window not being able to resize makes it pretty useless.

How many times and how many ways can one say "it is not resizeable" without
finally saying, "Listen, it can't be done!"

As for Ken's add-in, I use it but not to resize the window.  Its other uses
are much more important.
