"The reminder for [Subject] will not appear because the item is not in your Calendar or Task folder.

[Leo Bueno]

We use Office 2003 and a Small Business Exchange Server, so we can
share one calendar.

After we converted to the server-based Office from stand-alone, we no
longer can include reminders in our calendar appointments.

When we try to add a reminder we get an error box that says: "The
reminder for [Subject] will not appear because the item is not in
your Calendar or Task folder. Is this OK?"

[T]he error is because its not being posted to the default mailbox
folders.

So you are using Terminal Services to access Outlook, correct? Are
they using cached mode?

We are not using Terminal Services. We are using cached mode.

So, will greatly appreciate your suggestions on how to solve this
problem.

Thanks.

If we say yes, the entry will have a reminder, but the reminder will
not work.

It's fairly clear that you're not putting that reminder in a default folder.

So, will greatly appreciate your suggestions on how to solve this
problem.
