this is hacking me off now - why oh why dont outlook reminders come to the foreground all the time? :(

it means things are easily missed and is a right pain in the *rse!

anyone figured a way round it?

Hi

I’m late to almost every meeting I have – this is very annoying!

I read about solution using VB – but I think there should be an official fix – when is MS listening to its customers? When the left???

No fix yet... have you seen this article? http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/2010/outlook-2010-reminders-focus/ - there are 3 tools which may help. Reminder Alerts was written specifically for this problem - or use DeskPins to pin it on top (although having it always on top could lead you to ignore it... )

If you use multiple monitors the problem may be worse as outlook is not 100% multiple monitor friendly - it's usually best if outlook and the reminder window is on monitor 1.
