Cannot delete / postpone / alter birthday reminders

I am having great problems with my calendar at present. I cannot delete /
postpone / alter birthday reminders, and hence they come up every time I open
Outlook. Unfortunately, this list is growing every day, and is getting
rather long.

I am running Outlook 2002 at work, Outlook 2003 at home, and am linked on
Plaxo. I understand that Plaxo is probably the reason for this, but
uninstalling plaxo has not helped and the problem remains.

Please help.

The error messages I get are:

"Cannot postpone the reminder. The end date you entered occurs before the
start date"
"There is an error snoozing the reminder "------'s birthday". Snooze
operation terminated.
"Cannot turn off the reminder. You may be reminded again. The end date you
entered occurs before the start date"
"There is an error dismissing the reminder "------'s birthday". Dismiss
operation terminated.
"Cannot open the item for this reminder. The end date you entered occurs
before the start date"

I have tried deleting these contacts, but the birthday reminders remain.
 
Hi,

Thank you very much for your reply. It seemed to work at home (Outlook 11)
and not at work (Outlook 10).

I see they are logged as "multi-day" events, in Outlook today. Is tht
significant?

Cheers,

Mandy
 
Hi,

I found another post in this forum, that explained how to go to
"view-current view-by category" and delete these errors individually. They
were all duplicates anyway, so I shall have to try avoid that in future.

Regards,

Mandy
