A VP at our company just asked me how to get the calendar reminder "bell"
icon back on his calendar appointments. In 2003, you see the bell on any
appointment that has a reminder. It's missing in 2007. How can this be
added back?

Thanks
Carmen

It is now only available in a table view.

thanks Milly. Any idea why this was removed from the normal day/week/month
view?

thanks
Carmen

Well would someone that does work for Microsoft please put the icon back. I
totally rely on it as I receive meeting notices from external companies and
they quite often lose the reminder setting - particularly if they use Lotus.

I don't get the 'clutter' argument - they kept the private, re-occur and
attachment icons, what was the issue with the bell?

Microsoft is aware of the complaints. I don't expect it back in 2007 though.

Not all appointments are recurring, private or have attachments - the icon
is helpful. meetings can (usually) be identified by the subject so that icon
was axed - and reminders are turned of or on by default for all new items,
so they determined that icon could go.

I know you don't work for Microsoft and appreciate that you're just telling
us lower life-forms what you know but their attitude is awful. They have to
put it back. Simple as that.
