If you use Thunderbird for your eMail add the extension "ReminderFox" -
It does this kind of thing perfectly!!

My esteemed listmates,
I’m wondering if in Libre Writer or Calc a user can set up a sound or
pop-up notification of an approaching deadline which sounds or pop-sup when
you power on the PC or while Windows is open even though Word or Excel is
*not* open?
Ex. Due date for auto tire rotation – You don’t have Libre Writer or Calc
open but Windows 7 is open. A sound (e.g. .mp3) launches or a box pops-up
alerting you that in one week you need to rotate your tires.
This is just an example so please don’t explore the issue of rotating
tires! :)
I was reading/watching these Excel suggestions (below) but they don’t seem
to answer my questions about alerting sounds or pops-ups if the program
is not open.

Has anyone set these kinds of notification?
Thanks so much.
Charles.
