SUMMARY: Give yourself more time when Outlook 2007 reminds you of upcoming appointments.
By default, when you add an appointment in the Calendar of Microsoft Outlook 2007, Outlook provides a 15 minute reminder for the meeting, although this can be changed on a per-meeting basis.
If you frequently need more reminder time and don't want (or forget) to change each appointment reminder manually, you can change Outlook's default:
1. Select "Tools" - "Options".
2. The "Options" multi-tabbed dialog box appears. Click the "Preferences" tab.
3. Underneath "Calendar", make sure "Default Reminder" is checked.

4. Next to the checkbox, click on the pull-down and change the reminder time as desired. Or, you can manually enter the amount of reminder time.
5. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
