Reminder won't work for calender item in Outlook 2003

Update:
I've discovered I have 2 calendars. One resides on our server and I am able
to use reminders on that one. The other resides in my personal folders and is
the one with the problem as described previously. I'm wondering why they
behave differently.
 
When I try to assign a reminder for an event in outlook 2003 calendar, it
says "The reminder for (event) will not appear because the item is not in
your calendar or tasks folder." My calendar is in my personal folders in the
outlook folder tree. I don't know where else it should be. I don't see a
"calendar" folder.
Thanks, Paul Win XP SP2

You can have only one set of default folders and reminders work only in the
default folders (i.e., where your delivery location is). You can purchase
third-party tools that will allow you to have reminders in non-default
folders as well.
