No Reminders after creating new profile.

[Sandeep Sheokand]

Hi,

I am stuck with a situation. I am working with Outlook 2007 AddIn using C#.

I created a custom calender folder. There are few appointments in custom
calender folder which has "ReminderSet" to true.
But just after few seconds that "ReminderSet" property changes to false
(automatically). I dont know the reason behind this.

Its working fine before i created a new profile. Now in new profile, outlook
does not show any reminders associated with custom calender folder. When i
open that appointment, its Reminder is None. I changed it to 5minutes and
click save & close. But again it just changes its reminder to none.

I think there may be some settings with that new profile as code works fine
with previous profile.

Please reply asap.

Thanks in advance.

Sandeep Sheokand.

Did you set up the Instant Search to search all the folders or the calendar
subfolder? Do you get reminders from the main calendar.

Is any other code running at all? I've never heard of reminders just turning
themselves off that way unless something else is doing it.

I maintain search over the calender subFolder only.

Do you get reminders from the main calendar.

Yes, i am getting reminders from main calender correctly.

Is any other code running at all? I've never heard of reminders just turning themselves off that way unless something else is doing it.

I do not know exactly. But in my main profile everything works fine. i.e.
Outlook.pst file works fine.
But now after creating new profile/profiles i am getting this situation i.e.
with file Outlook1.pst,Outlook2.pst etc.

Please help me out.

Thanks,

Reminders on items don't just get set to false, something must be changing
those properties on the items. A profile on its own can't do that. So you
have to look and see what else is running that could be doing that. I can't
tell you that, it's something you have to look for on your own. Disable all
addins and any other code that integrates with Outlook and start with that
setup and see what happens.
