Because of the time-zone glitch that caused my contacts' birthdays and
anniversaries to span over two days when I copied and pasted them from my
computer on the (East Coast) to my home computer (Central), I have multiple
reminders now that I have corrected the dates (manually, which was a real
pain). I have tried using the switches "/cleanreminders" and "/cleansniff"
to no avail and even tried using Outlookspy
"http://forum.aumha.org/viewtopic.php?t=19697&". Nothing has worked. Where
is the reminders folder located? How come I can't just delete it and
regenerate a new one? Does it matter that I have multiple profiles set up
for Outlook, i.e. are the switches looking for a hidden file that is not
where it may normally be??

You can delete it and then start Outlook with /resetfolders to re-create it.
Download OutlookSpy from www.dimastr.com and install it when Outlook isn't
running. Click the IMsgStore button, click the Open Root Container button,
go to GetHierarchyTable tab, open the Finder folder. Reminders should be in
there. It might be directly in the hierarchy depending on Outlook version
and store type. If it's in Finder you would see it in the GetHierarchyTable
tab in Finder.
