From: Christine on 18 Mar 2010 21:31 Using Windows 7 with Outlook 2003 on a new computer at work. My task reminders do not remind me even though I have checked the box and clicked save. I have used the Run program and typed outlook / cleanreminders but come up with this error code in a yellow triangle with an ! in it: The command line argument is not valid. Verify the switch you are using. Can anyone help me with how to get the reminders to appear at a time that I set? Right now I can only view my daily tasks and hope I didn't miss anything!! Thank you for any help you can offer.

From: Christine on 18 Mar 2010 22:17 I will try that when I return to work on Monday, though I do believe I tried that also after reading about it on a Microsoft website. The tasks are in the default folder. If the switch doesn't work on Monday, I will repost with information from that attempt! Thank you.
