Anyway to get the little bell symbol or whatever to indicate that the
appointment has a reminder set? I would like to be able to see what
appointments have reminders and what don't at a glance instead of having to
open up the appointment.

no, not in a day ,week or month view.

Thanks, Diane. That's too bad. Since you listed out the views it does NOT
display in, are there some views it does show in?

You can add the view to any table view.

Dear Richlandia,

I'm using outlook 2007 and facing the same problem. cannot see the
appointements having reminder or not. did you solved your problem?

Thanks for your help.

no it can't be updated and its unlikely they will add it in an update. They
removed it to clean up and streamline the view. Reminders can be enabled by
default and should be applied to all appointments when its enabled, making
the icon unnecessary in the month view. you can use a table view If you need
to look for items without reminders.

I really don't understand why they removed this feature! It should be at
least an option to keep it as it was for users that need it in their
workflow. All we need is a simple checkbox in the Options menu.

Just wondering -- did you have a focus group of people who actually spend
much of their time working on calendars before you decided to remove the
visible reminder? It's one of the first things I looked for when I began
working in 2007 last week. It was a really important and useful feature --
and I can't figure out why you simply took it away.

Well, I didn't take it away, but yes, Microsoft uses a lot of focus groups
in their study of how people work with computers. They also make heavy use
of usability labs and even send people around to offices to watch how real
people in the real world work. They are also aware people miss the bell - I
had the opportunity to speak with the product team recently and it was on
the list of user complaints we discussed.

I use the work week view and, after being changed to Outlook 2007 recently,
I find it bizarre that Microsoft has removed the reminder symbol in the
interests of cleaning up the display. Oh well, it sounds like I have to try a
table view. I have had a look at the All Appointments view, which isn't
really the kind of view I want, but in any event I can't see how to make the
items show if they have a reminder. Can someone help or point me to a
suitable help file or website.
