In Outlook2010, is there a way to view the currently snoozing reminders?
Solution 1
Sub SnoozedReminders()
' http://www.jpsoftwaretech.com/check-your-outlook-reminders-in-vba/
Dim MyReminder As Outlook.Reminder
Dim MyReminders As Outlook.Reminders
Dim Report As String
Dim i As Long
Set MyReminders = Outlook.Reminders
i = 0
For Each MyReminder In MyReminders
If HasReminderFired(MyReminder) = True Then
i = i + 1
Report = Report & i & ": " & MyReminder.Caption & vbCr & _
" Snoozed to " & MyReminder.NextReminderDate & vbCr & vbCr
End If
Next MyReminder
CreateReportAsEmail "Snoozed Items", Report
End Sub
Function HasReminderFired(rmndr As Outlook.Reminder) As Boolean
HasReminderFired = (rmndr.OriginalReminderDate <> rmndr.NextReminderDate)
End Function
' VBA SubRoutine which displays a report inside an email
' Programming by Greg Thatcher, http://www.GregThatcher.com
Public Sub CreateReportAsEmail(Title As String, Report As String)
On Error GoTo On_Error
Dim Session As Outlook.Namespace
Dim mail As MailItem
Dim MyAddress As AddressEntry
Dim Inbox As Outlook.folder
Set Session = Application.Session
Set Inbox = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set mail = Inbox.items.Add("IPM.Mail")
mail.Subject = Title
mail.Body = Report
mail.Save
mail.Display
Exiting:
Set Session = Nothing
Set Inbox = Nothing
Set mail = Nothing
Exit Sub
On_Error:
MsgBox "error=" & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
Resume Exiting
End Sub
If you are unfamiliar with VBA see Slipstick's explanation page. You will find information about:
- macro security settings;
- where to put the code (You can use a regular module with Insert | Module); and
- how to create a button.

According to this View snoozed items forum post, it is not possible to see a list of snoozed items. The post suggests that you may be able to see a limited amount of helpful information by creating a custom view which displays some of the reminder fields.

Is there any way in Outlook 2010 to pull up a list of items that are currently snoozed? For example, let's say two weeks out I set a reminder to pop up on Friday for an important lunch meeting the following Monday (I like to be reminded of Monday tasks before the weekend). When the reminder pops up on Friday, I snooze it for three days so that it will pop up again right before lunch on Monday. Then Monday rolls around and my memory is fuzzy and I'm a bit paranoid that I accidentally dismissed the reminder on Friday instead of correctly snoozing it. I can still see the original appointment on my calendar, but I need to ensure that I'm actually going to have the reminder pop up when I expect it to so that I don't miss my meeting.
Is there any way in Outlook 2010 to pull up a list of the reminders that are currently snoozed? This would also be helpful for those cases where I complete a task whose reminder I had snoozed until later, and I now want to pull up the snoozed reminder and cancel it.
