It happened to me after I did the last update. I tried about 4 times. Even though NOTHING has changed in the following - I have to go to Options/Customize/Other/TurnOn or Off Optional Reminders and then change something - anything - and save. Usually the 2nd time I do this it works again.

Yes, it's happening to me too...since the last update! I'm glad someone mentioned it, I thought it was only me. I've gone into Customize and did the adjusting...then sometimes it will work and then again it won't work. I have to try and remember to go to File and click on Backup. -Bev. High
