Hello,

I have been primarily working on ASP.NET applications but I am relatively
novice to Windows applications. I am trying to build a reminder utility for
a Windows Form based application. Sort of like the Outlook reminder for
Appointments and Meetings. Essentially something that will popup and give
you an option to re-schedule it. If you select a to be remided after 2
hours, it should pop up again after 2 hours with the same form.

I would imagine that I would have to write some sort of Windows service to
keep the application 'alive' and keep track of time. However, I would
appreciate if you could let me know some better (more standard) ways of
implementing such a functionality.

Thanks.
 
I dont think that will solve my problem.
Essentially, my application is a windows form with a reminder box. If the
user doesnt desire to perform any action for now, they can just defer it.
The application should pop again at the deferred time.

So, I am not looking for a reminder control per se... just to include that
capability in my application.
