Making reminder alarm ring?

G

George

Am using Outlook 2003, with SP1.

I can set reminders to make an alarm sound (like a harp), when a reminder
comes due (it's in Tools > Options > Other > Advanced > Reminder Options >
[X]Play sound).

But Outlook has to be up and running, else no alarm sound.

Is there a way to set Outlook to be sort of in the background (not just
minimized, but really in the background) enough that when a reminder comes
due, the alarm will sound, and either the reminder window pops up or an icon
appears in bottom-right task bar? (Seems like there IS a way for it to check
*e-mails* in the background so an icon appears in task bar, but what about
*reminder alarms*?

Thanks,
George
