The default reminder for all day events is always 18 hours and must be changed manually. You cannot change that default.

I have a related problem;

an all day meeting
recurring for 7 consecutive days
and sent to an attendee (ie., sending an FYI copy)

Every time, the attendee gets an error message when trying to accept the
appointment;

"The reminder for an occurrence of "meeting subject" cannot be set to appear
before the previous occurrence.
Shorten the reminder time or lengthen the recurrence period."

I have changed the reminder time to zero minutes, then un-selected the
reminder, BEFORE adding the 7 day recurrance - and my appointment recipient
STILL gets this message.

Any suggestions??
