Reminders object (Outlook)
Contains a collection of all the Reminder objects in a Microsoft Outlook application that represent the reminders for all pending items.
Remarks
Use the Application object's Reminders property to return the Reminders collection. Use Reminders (index), where index is the name or ordinal value of the reminder, to return a single Reminder object.
Reminders are created programmatically when a new Outlook item is created with a reminder. For example, a reminder is created when an AppointmentItem object is created and the AppointmentItem object's ReminderSet property is set to True.
Example
The following example displays the captions of each reminder in the list.
Sub ViewReminderInfo()
'Lists reminder caption information
Dim objRem As Reminder
Dim objRems As Reminders
Dim strTitle As String
Dim strReport As String
Set objRems = Application.Reminders
strTitle = "Current Reminders:"
'If there are reminders, display message
If Application.Reminders.Count <> 0 Then
For Each objRem In objRems
'If string is empty, create new string
If strReport = "" Then
strReport = objRem.Caption & vbCr
Else
'Add info to string
strReport = strReport & objRem.Caption & vbCr
End If
Next objRem
'Display report in dialog
MsgBox strTitle & vbCr & vbCr & strReport
Else
MsgBox "There are no reminders in the collection."
End If
End Sub
The following example creates a new appointment item and sets the ReminderSet property to True, adding a new Reminder object to the Reminders collection.
Sub AddAppt()
'Adds a new appointment and reminder to the reminders collection
Dim objApt As AppointmentItem
Set objApt = Application.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)
objApt.ReminderSet = True
objApt.Subject = "Tuesday's meeting"
objApt.Save
End Sub
