Does anyone know if there is a way to change the default time for snoozing an appt.?
I have a user that uses his calendar to remind him of things he needs to do in a day and wants to have the default snooze set to one hour?

TIA

found this from another site:
Although you can't change the default snooze period—it's always 5 minutes to start-–Outlook will remember if you prefer a different amount of waiting time before the next reminder. For example, if you snooze a reminder for 2 hours, when that reminder appears 2 hours later and you're in the same Outlook session, Outlook will offer to snooze it for another 2 hours.
got that info from here:
 
however, if you're a programmer, its apparent that there is a way... But I know nothing about this, but here's the info in case you are:


Snooze Method
See Also Applies To Example
Delays the reminder by a specified time. This is equivalent to the user clicking the Snooze button.

expression.Snooze(SnoozeTime)

expression Required. An expression that returns a Reminder object.

SnoozeTime Optional Variant. Indicates the amount of time (in minutes) to delay the reminder. The default value is 5 minutes.

Remarks
This method will fail if the current reminder is not active.

Example
The following example delays all active reminders by a specified amount of time.

Sub SnoozeReminders()
'Delays all reminders by a specified amount of time

Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objRems As Reminders
Dim objRem As Reminder
Dim varTime As Variant

Set olApp = Outlook.Application
Set objRems = olApp.Reminders
varTime = InputBox("Enter the number of minutes to delay")

For Each objRem In objRems
If objRem.IsVisible = True Then
objRem.Snooze (varTime)
End If
Next objRem

End Sub
