Reminder Window Popup screwed

My reminder window has been working just fine. No sign of the problems
described here so far.

However it has just taken on a new modus operandi that makes it useless. I
was running a DOS app and Outlook was running in the background. A reminder
came by and the reminder window duly popped up underneath.

As I was working in my DOS app I clicked on the task bar to move focus back
to that app.

Now my reminder popup still pops up but it is comes up in a very small 1
inch wide title bar line. There is no way to resize it or change it and
obvioulsy the previously indicated data within the reminder window is no
longer visible since the window is non-existant.

This renders the notion of a 'reminder' silly.

How can I restore the 'reminder' window size back to its original setting??

Thank you.

Hi. This problem is resolved in Office 2003 using the following method.

Close Outlook. At the start menu choose 'run', type
Outlook.exe /resetfolders

The reminder window dialogue is now restored to it's original size and works
a treat.

Thank you for the posting from Diane Poremsky for the solution!
