Since I retired during the summer (after 35 years of eating corporate BS) I can't seem to keep track of what day it is.  Consequently I have missed some appointments.

Can anyone suggest a calendar program that will display popup reminders when appointments are imminent?  When I was a wage slave we used Lotus Notes which did this well but that is expensive and has much more capability than I want or need.

I don't use Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express and prefer something non Microsoft-related.

Thanks,
Richard

My personal favorite calendar program is *Alarm ++*.  It's a shareware program that you can try out before you buy--it will allow only a limited number of reminders until you register and pay:  Alarm++

Thanks NightOwl,
Alarm ++ is great.  I am buying a license ASAP.

I have a nice calendar tacked to my kitchen cabinets right where I make my morning coffee.  I write all my appointments right on the calendar.
That way, no hard drive crash will leave me brainless.

For my service calls, I write them on tickets that I print up on my PC printer and I tack them up right above my telephone, using 'Push Pins'.

At 65 and counting, I trust NOTHING to the old memory. ;) ;D ;D ;D

Calendar software?  Forgetaboutit!
