Outlook setting through code(in >tools >options)

[tomthedev]

I was curious if somebody had some insight on how to change an outlook
setting through code.
Whether a registry entry or profile distribution(prf)...how might one be
able to change
the Tools >> Options >> Set remindrs on tasks with due dates.

Ideally, would like to check that it is not selected.

Thank you!

The registry entry for Outlook 2007 is TaskAutoRemind (REG_DWORD) in the key
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options\Tasks. Adjust the
version number for your scenario.

A group policy object would be one way to deploy this setting to users.
