To Do Bar Error Messages

[The Harmon Family]

When I open Outlook I get two "error messages". One says "There was a
problem reading one or more of your reminders. Some reminders may not
appear." The second appears in the To Do bar where my tasks should be. The
field is blank except for "The operation failed. An object could not be
found." I have run diagnostics and tried doing a repair from the install
disk. Any other ideas?

First start Outlook with the cleanreminders switch;
Start-> Run; outlook.exe /cleanreminders
(note the space in the command)

This should take care of the reminder error and regenerate all your
reminders which has not yet been dismissed.

If you still have the To-Do Bar issue then, close Outlook and start it again
with the resettodobar switch;
Start-> Run; outlook.exe /resettodobar
(still note the space)
