Locating the <No Subject> Reminder

Are you getting a reminder on your Pocket PC with "No Subject".  You have tried to locate it in your Calendar and Tasks but were not able to locate it. .... if yes, try the following approach to identify the errant reminder.

  1. Synchronize your Pocket PC with the Desktop PC.

  2. Open Outlook -> Click Go -> Tasks.

  3. Click Tools -> Find -> Advanced Find.

  4. Click Advanced tab and in the 'Define more criteria' section
    enter "Subject" in the blank Textbox and in the condition
    choose "is empty".

  5. Click Add to list and then click Find Now.


This should list the errant reminder....you can delete it from the list.  If Tasks doesn't list any such reminder, try a similar approach in the Calendar.
 

  1. Open Outlook -> Click Go -> Calendar.

  2. Click Tools -> Find -> Advanced Find...

  3. Click Advanced tab and in the 'Define more criteria' section
    enter "Subject" in the blank Textbox and in the condition
    choose "is empty".

  4. Click Add to list and then click Find Now.

Another method to try and locate a recurring appointment on the Desktop PC is as follows:

  1. Open Outlook -> Click Go -> Calendar.

  2. Click View, Current View, Recurring Appointments. A list of
    all of your recurring appointments will be listed. Look
    through each of them to locate the offending appointment.
    It would probably be one without a description.

  3. From the list, select the reminders to be deleted and delete them.
