Re occuring reminders - 3 working days

[Guest]

How do you set up a reminder to advise 3 clear working days prior to the 10th
of each month to recurr every month. ie when the 10th falls on a monday i
need the reminder on the previous wednesday. if on a friday i need the
reminder on the Tuesday

That is something you cannot do through the interface. It should be possible
to generate those items programmatically though. Check with the developers
in microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba

Good luck!

Nope, a recurrence pattern like that can't be defined even with low level
code that hacks the recurrence pattern binary blob.

I was more thinking about generating individual appointments instead. Not
possible either? Saves doing the math yourself... ehm... kinda :-S

Individual appointments, yes. You'd still have to do the math to figure out
which were working days though.

Not as a recurrence pattern however for recurring appointments.
