INTRODUCTION

To help keep you on track, Outlook reminds you 15 minutes before any scheduled events. You can change the lead time for a reminder. For example, suppose you have an appointment that is 30 minutes away; in that case, you might prefer a 30 or even 45 minute advance reminder.

TIP

Forgoing Reminders

If you don't want Outlook to display a reminder before an appointment, uncheck the Reminder check box in the Appointment window.
