Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! I wasn't aware of the
free OL98 download. Is it still available? Don't bother, I guess,
because I will have everyone on Outlook XP as soon as I can. As much
as I'd like to use OL2003, it is not an option for me at this time. I
mainly wanted to know if Exchange has anything to do with reminders,
and since they don't, I will focus my attention on OL. I'll see how
XP handles this situation. Thank you so much for your help, and if
there's anything else to add please do so!
