Turning off Office reminders also disables email notification, which is not
what I want.  All I want to do is turn off calendar alerts, because I use
iCal as my alerting mechanism.  A while back disabling the demon was
recommended (by Diane I think) as a solution to the calendar alert problem.

I am still annoyed by the deleted, or as you call them, moved, invites.  I
think this is a case of Entourage trying to be smart, but being annoying.
I've sent in a suggestion to MS to change this behavior.

Thanks for the input, though.           -Bob
