yields false results here.

search for begin dates
select one item & remove begin date by unchecking
re-search same criteria
In my test, items w/o begin date still appears in list

Also trying to figure out how to remove/delete/undo pending reminders on items that have been done/completed. There are a lot of un-necssary reminders in the db -- don't know if this makes any difference.

Wondering if there is value in linking 'done' to reminder, i.e when something is done, remindr is automatically cancelled.

Thank you.

That works as expected here. Please ZIP and send or post a .urd file that demonstrates the problem.

Do you mean marking a reminder item w Date Completed removes the reminder on your system or what exactly?

I had an item with a Begin Date of 3/27/2007. Performed an Advanced Search of Begin Date equals 3/27/2007 and the item was found. I made the Begin Date of that item null by unchecking its value. Performed the search again and it was not found.

Clear the Reminder or Begin Date/Time attributes.

OK, thank you but I guess I'm suggesting that the completed flag or "done" attribute or "date completed" attribute -- something -- be connected to reminder vs the steps you've listed. To me it's logical that if I click "done" in some manner, that whatever shows it is pending is un-set automatically since it is illogical to have one item pending and done at the same time. Maybe I'm missing something.
