XCLN: Reminders Do Not Start for Items in Public Folders

Article ID:186689
Last Review:October 26, 2006

This article was previously published under Q186689

SUMMARY

When you compose a new appointment or meeting request in a calendar that is located in a public folder, if you check the option for a reminder, a reminder is not generated. Instead, the following message is displayed:
The reminder for XXX's appointment will not appear because the item is
not in your calendar or tasks folder. Is this OK?
The reminder does not notify you of the meeting or appointment.

MORE INFORMATION

Because public folders are not specific to any one user or profile, there is no one for the reminder to remind. To receive reminders to specific appointments or meetings, use your mailbox calendar to make appointments and schedule meetings.

APPLIES TO
Microsoft Outlook 97 Service Pack 1
Microsoft Outlook 97 Standard Edition
Microsoft Outlook 98 Standard Edition
Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Standard Edition
