Can 18 hour reminder for all day events be changed?

[David Hearn]

I'm getting annoyed with the default of 18 hour reminders for all day
events. I have a WM5 phone which syncs with my calendar and I often get
it playing/buzzing the reminder for an all-day event at 6am (18 hours
before it starts).

Whilst I'm aware I can change the reminder time to 16 hours when
creating the entry - I find it a pain as I forget, and also, 16 hours
isn't in the drop down, so I have to type it (0.5 days, 18 hours or 2
days seems to be the granularity in the drop down).

I don't want to silence the phone overnight as I want people to call me
if there's an emergency or my wife is working nights and wants to send a
text.

I know how to change the default reminder time for timed appointments,
but this has no effect on all-day events. I've also seen it suggested
that it's impossible to change the default reminder time for all day events?

Any advice?

Thanks

David

As far as I know you can't change that reminder interval.
