when I put a new appointment into my outlook calendar and set a reminder a
box comes up and says The reminder for "xxx whatever I name the reminder"
will not appear becuase the item is not in your calendar or task folder. is
this ok.

The problem is its not ok i want appointment reminders to pop up like they
are supposed to but its not happening. And I dont know how to fix the issue.
I have done the detect and repair, I have tried creating new calenendars all
to no avail. can any one help me resolve this issue.
