Reminder Popup As Active Windows
I've seen this question many times but no answers - how
do I get Outlook 2003 (Windows XP) to display the reminder popup windows as the active window - they are currently displaying in the task bar behind what I'm working on - totally USELESS! Please help! |

Any other ideas?

I missed another appointment today because of this issue. We have many users
here and as far as I know nobody's reminder window appears as the active window. When I have many windows open I hear the reminder sound but the window is buried somewhere beneath my active window. If I am away from my desk when it pops up, I don't know it's there. Extremely aggravating! " wrote: Yes I've tried that (twice now). No change. Any other ideas?

I missed another appointment today due to this same issue. The reminder
window pops up behind my active window. I've got reminders configured to make a sound, but if I'm away from my desk I obviously don't hear the sound and therefore don't know there is a reminder lurking behind by active window. Very frustrating! " wrote: Yes I've tried that (twice now). No change. Any other ideas?
