Default Outlook 2003 reminders won't open. Fix won't work.


When I open Outlook, I get the error message: "There was a problem reading
one or more of your reminders. Some reminders may not appear. Cannot locate
recurrence information for this appointment." That's all it tells me -- but
won't display ANY reminders any more.

The knowledge base suggesting running "outlook/cleanreminders" from the
Start-Run menu. When I try that, it says the file doesn't exist. I've
already run a repair (twice) on MS Office. Help!

No, it says to enter

outlook.exe /cleanreminders

Notice the space preceeding the slash.

You might also try:
"Outlook /resetfolders /cleanreminders" -- note the spaces in front of each
'/'

It's 'outlook /cleanreminders' - with a space.
