I keep getting the message "Outlook had trouble reading one or more of your
reminders." Thus, none of teh reminders actually pop up. anyone else had
this problem and fixed it?

Aloha FrankinDC,

Have you tried starting Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch?

Sounds promising. How would I do that (advance apologies for my lack of tech
aptitude)?

In Outlook click Help and look for "command line".

Aloha FrankinDC,

No worries.

Try: Start | Run and type

Outlook.exe /cleanreminders

in the dialog box that appears.
