Giving Yourself a Reminder


Tutorial Home >Software >Office >Lotus Organizer 6.0 >Scheduling Appointments >Giving Yourself a Reminder

  Step 1:  Benefits of Reminders

Open a Report
Another plus for Organizer compared to the old-style paper scheduling books is that you can now receive reminders of appointments. No reason to miss meetings ever again (unless of course you want to!).
  Step 2:  Select the Appointment

Open a Report
Right click the appointment for which you want to set up a reminder. This selects the appointment and brings up a menu of choices.
  Step 3:  Select Alarm

Open a Report
Click Alarm on the list of choices that appear.
  Step 4:  Set Up the Alarm

Open a Report
In this example, lets say we want to hear an alarm 30 minutes prior to the scheduled meeting. Change the alarm setting to 30 minutes before the meeting. Change the tune of the alarm if you prefer. Click OK. The appointment now has a scheduled alarm. You will hear the alarm as long as Organizer is open. Note: I keep my Organizer minimized at the bottom of my screen in Windows so I can always keep track of my schedule – even when working in other programs.
