I use several subfolders under the parent contact folder
for different contact groups. When I flag a contact from
the parent folder with a follow up date it shows up on
this day in the reminder window. If I do the same for a
contact in the supfolder it doesn't. 90% of my contacts
are in subfolders which makes follow up very difficult.
Does anybody have a solution for this problem?

Many thanks for your support

Reminders will only follow from the default Inbox, Calendar, Contacts
and Tasks folders in the default mail store. To make reminders fire
from other folders in the default mail store, you'd need a third party
app -- and it doesn't work with all versions of Outlook.

What version of Outlook are you using, and if 98 or 2000, what mail
support mode? If you're not sure, look at the second line of Help |
About Microsoft Outlook -- it should say "Internet Mail Only" or
"Corporate/Workgroup". (Outlook 97, 2002, and 2003 don't have separate
modes.)
