Outlook reminders

[Just Me]

WinXP, Outlook 2002

Is there any way to set reminders without creating a meeting? I'd like
to be reminded of things throughout the day (ie take medication at
1pm) without setting a 30 minute meeting (or at least look like I'm
busy on my schedule).

Any way around this? Thanks in advance!!

You can do a couple of things.

1. Create a 1 minute meeting with a reminder.
2. Create a task and set a reminder at a certain time.
3. Create a 30 minute meeting and change the "show time as" field to Free.
Then others won't see you as busy.
