Diane!
Thankyou for your response!!
I was about to resort to post-it notes!!
I'm struggling so much trying to familiarise myself with Vista Ultimate, and
Office 2007, I hadn't noticed that "Windows Calender" was included!
That'll do for me if I can get it to remind me even when it's closed.
I've just set it, and ticked the box that says to show reminders even when
the programme is closed, but it has failed.:-(
Don't know how to achieve this, can you advise?
