Specific Event in Outlook 2007 - send email reminder

1

I have a specific event that recurs every so often on my Outlook Calendar...I would like Outlook (2007) to send a reminder every so often to a specific email address, reminding this person of this event. How do I do this?

1Is the recipient also using Outlook? If so, the best tool is a Task Request instead of an e-mail. You can make it recurring and also include it on your own task list. Of course, this won't work if the recipient doesn't use Outlook, declines to accept the task request or simply ignores task reminders. – Mike Fitzpatrick – 2010-04-28T04:51:37.903

@ Mike: no, the recipient does not use Outlook...just standard webmail...Thanks anyway! – studiohack – 2010-04-28T05:27:52.450

Since I didn't want to go the macro route, I decided to use a webmail calendar and notification system, which supports email notifications.

Here's an example of using a macro to trigger and email based on a task reminder, which you could use as a model http://www.vboffice.net/sample.html?mnu=2&pub=6&lang=en&smp=10&cmd=showitem

You could also take a look at http://www.tickletrain.com. I've had the same problem. But this works and there is a free plan.
