Reminders stopped working in Outlook 2003--Is there a way to reset?

[resonator80]

My reminders have stopped working. I get a message that says "There was
a problem reading one or more of your reminders. Some reminders may not
appear. Cannot locate recurrence information for this appointment."

Since I do not know what appointment they mean, I cannot fix it.

Is there any general reset of Outlook that might fix this problem?

Thanks,

Have you restarted your PC lately? If not, try that first. You can also open
Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch:

Using cleanreminders works, but it does not completely cure the
problem. First, the same error message as I described before appears.
Then, when I click it off, the reminders window comes up OK. When I
start Outlook without the cleanreminders switch, I get the error
message and never get the reminders window.

Does this mean that I will have to open Outlook using the
cleanreminders switch indefinitely? Is there a way to cure the problem
permanently?
