Chang - 11 Dec 2007 06:30 GMT

Am using Outlook 2007. Every time I open my Outlook Program, I get a reminder
for an appoint due immediately which is not in my calender.
I can't delete the appointment or "snooze".
I've tried the following steps:
1. When try to snooze, - error
" Cannot postpone the reminder. The message you specify could not be found"
appears.
and then another error "There is an error snoozing the reminder "contact".
Snooze operation terminated appears after clearing the 1st error.

2. Used Outlook /reminder: It clear all reminders for an instance and 5 mins
later, the 2 bugging reminders appear again.

Hi Chang

Are you running in an Exchange environment? If so, can you get to your
mailbox using Outlook Web Access (OWA)? (Your administrator may be able to
tell you how to do this if you don't already have the URL.)

I've seen cases similar to what you described where the offending calendar
item could be found and removed with OWA.

Good luck!

Guys,

I have managed to solve the problem.
I closed the outlook software (this is critical) and run the
outlook/clean reminders. Open the outlook again and my bugging reminders did
not appear again.

Hope it will help for the rest who faced this reminder problem.

Cheers

Chang
