Default "reminder sounds"

I went to the recommended Control Panel-Sounds. There
were several programs listed which had events that you
could activate sounds for. There were no events involoving
microsoft Outlook. Is this where you change sounds? and if
so how do you add Outlook as an event capable of sound?

Control Panel-Sounds and Multimedia. Change your sound
from there.

After searching google.groups.com and finding no answer,
asked:

In Outlook you can set up appointment, and you can also
have an alarm go off on your computer to remind you of
this appointment. Is there a way to download different
sounds for these "reminder sounds"?

The sound played for a reminder is set within Outlook, not from the Control
Panel. That is used to set the new mail sound for Windows which is used in
Outlook. For reminder sounds they must be .WAV files are specified using
Tools, Options, Other tab, Advanced Options button, Reminder Options button.
