default and should be applied to all appointments when its enabled, making
the icon unnecessary in the month view. you can use a table view If you need
to look for items without reminders.

my boss's calendar and my own, it was a quick verification by having the
reminder symbol visible without opening each appointment. Any chance that
2007 could be updated to include the reminder symbol?

I've wasted days with my frustrated users not only on the "missing bell"
problem, but on many of the changes in Office 2007. Could MS not just
implement an XP mode? (as my users call it) Where Office 2007 appears and
appears to behave identical to 2003 with maybe a few more buttons?

This is the eigth reason on my list to roll back to Office 2003 and recommend
that others don't upgrade. Leaves me wondering whether Linux could possibly
be this painful.

upgrading to Office 2007, at least paritally due to the disappearance of
the
bell.
As for Linux, it's wonderful for TechnoGeeks like me. It is however, NOT
"user friendly", and most "average" users would be lost in it, bearing in
mind that the "average" user wouldn't know a Commad Line if he tripped
over
it. Even the easiest to use Linux implementations like "Mint" baffle the
heck out of 'em, though in fairness, it would me too, if I wasn't really
comp-u-savvy.
I hope MS sees the error of their ways on this one. It's just not nice to
give users a helpful feature for years, then take it away without at least
making it possible to put it back. I'm a little confused how how they
thought missing critical information "streamlines" anything.
