Creating Reminder Fields in custom appointment

Hello all
I've just begun customising an appointment form in Outlook 2002, which
I want to be the generic form that pops up when a particular day on the
calendar is double-clicked.

I want to hide the first-page that comes as standard as it is of no use
to my users. So I will open on the 2nd page (the one I have created
from scratch).

Problem:
I can't work out how to include the Reminder field on my page (just
like the one on the first page), that says: remind me in 18 hours, 1
day etc etc.

Question:
How do I include this field on my customised appointment form (and I
REALLY don't want to use the first 'standard' page that comes with
Appointments)

I don't know anything about VB etc, am just creating a form by dragging
fields from the 'Design this form' area of Outlook.

Thanks for ANY help!!

You would have to build a combo box with the desired options and bind it to the Remind Beforehand field. I'd use a two-column combo box with the 2nd column containing the numeric values and hidden.
