MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / January 2008Reminders when Outlook is closed
I use Outlook for my calendar, but not my e-mail, so I only open the program every few days. I want to be able to use the reminders for tasks and appointments. It only shows them when I open Outlook (and they are usually past due by then). I have found how to get Outlook to open when I start my computer, but I can't get it to display any current reminders without opening the program. Is there a way to do this? I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with Outlook 2007. Outlook needs to be running to trigger reminders. since you only use it for calendar and tasks, the vista calendar might meet your needs - and it will fire reminders when closed.

Earlier versions of windows do not have a calendar utility.
