Thanks, Jim. I guess the calendar pane will do it for me for now. I hope it doesn't turn into calendar pain.

It's coming from the Calendar 'Options' -
Change how you get reminders
"
"Thank-you for your interest in Windows Live Alerts. After much consideration we have decided to discontinue this service as part of the Windows Live offerings. Please sign up with Windows Live Alerts partners directly to receive their newsletters or other content updates from them. Hotmail Calendar Alerts and reminders will continue to be managed by Windows Live Alerts for the time being."
I did. But I was distracted by the line AFTER the last line: "Sorry, there are no Alerts providers available in your country/region." And the line before the last line: "Please sign up with Windows Live Alerts partners directly to receive their newsletters or other content updates from them." In other words, it sounds like it has been discontinued at least in my country/region.
after reading all the suggestions for getting reminders to work - a fundamental function of any calendar tool - I think I have the best answer - uninstall Live Mail and chose a different email client. And that's exactly what I'm going to do.
