To automatically set a reminder for birthdays
for new contacts
When you create a new contact and specify a birthdate, Microsoft
Outlook automatically creates a recurring annual event in the
Calendar folder for contact's birthday, but it doesn't set a
reminder unless you have Outlook set to add a reminder to all new
appointments (and in that case, it uses the default reminder time,
usually 15 minutes).
The VBA code below uses the
MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event to monitor the folder for new items
and automatically adds a reminder for XX number of days before the
birthday, with that number set in the #### USER OPTIONS #### section
of the code. Place the code in the built-in ThisOutlookSession
module.
