Making Microsoft Office Reminders get your attention Does anyone know how to have Office reminders pop up in front of any application? Now, if I'm working on something, they silently pop up in the background. 

It's one of the few features I miss from Outlook on windows, and I keep missing appointments.

It's driving me nuts (not to mention generating hate from colleagues whose meetings I miss).

Or should I just junk Office reminders, and use another application?
If you REALLY want to keep using Office you could sync office with reminders and iCal. But i'd recommend using iCal for this or if you're on office 2011 use the calendar in outlook instead of the reminder app.
