Turning off Calendar event reminders/notifications

I have Outlook 2002 on a Desktop PC, and on a laptop. Both can be connected
to a local area network. I sometimes will back up my .PST file from my
Desktop to my laptop. I rarely use Outlook 2002 on my laptop, however. But
on a rare occasion I will open Outlook on my laptop to grap a contact
address. Whenever I do that, however, I get a dozens and dozens and dozens
of popup notifications of past calendar events. This is because the PST on
the laptop may be a month or two old and Outlook is trying to play catch-up
and notify me of all the reminders that haven't been viewed since the PST
was placed on my laptop.

To say the least, it is annoying to have to spend 10 minutes closing all of
the dozens of reminder popups.

Is there a way to configure Outlook 2002 to NOT notify me of past events, or
to turn off everything related to the Calendar?

Thanks.

I don't have OL 2002 handy at the moment, but for OL 2003, I can click
Tools>Options>Other>Advanced Options>Reminder Options and disable reminders.
