Automatic Meeting Reminder to Attendees

[L. Mason]

Is Outlook capable of sending out a meeting reminder to attendees? Is there
some way that you can program all meeting attendees of a particular upcoming
meeting? For example - - the morning of a meeting, outlook sends an email
reminding attendees of the meeting.

I know that one could send a "meeting update", however, this was not quite
what I had in mind.

It's not built into Outlook but you could set up Outlook to remind you to
send them a reminder.

template as the URL. You'll need to hit send...

Since I'd be surprised if the people you invited are children, why not rely
on them to decide whether or not they want to enable their own reminders?

i am using cute reminder enterprise to do exactly the same thing. i
send a task to attendees specifying the time of the meeting and they
get two notifications one upon receipt of the invitation and another
just before the meeting

Is this an add-in for Outlook that does it automatically or does the user
need to create two meetings, one in outlook and one in the application you
are constantly hawking?

Sorry but is it really necessary to be nasty about an answer someone posted
to help someone else? If outlook cant do it, and he can provide a resource,
kudo's to him. I am looking for exactly the same thing.

Huh? How was Diane's answer nasty?

Huh? How was Diane's answer nasty?

That person appears to be unfamilar with the web based interface, and
"replied" to some other item she read. Hard telling who she really was
replying to.
