Try setting the flag status and icon to a value of 2 and 6.

Hi Alphafrog.. Thanks for getting back. I just tried. It still doesn't put a reminder flag on the recipients calendar
See screenshot below. that is what I am trying to set .

Does the sequence matter ? I mean .. does ".ReminderSet = True" have to be at end or beginning ? in my previous response. It was at the end

This doesn't set a calendar reminder. It sets an email flag which is a different type of reminder. I don't think there is a way to set a calendar reminder for a recipient, but I could be wrong on that.

I apologize... not calendar reminder... email flag with a reminder .. it should pop up in this area shown in screenshot below

It may not show up until the Due date. As a test, send an email with the flag due date for yesterday.

Neat... it did what i was trying to get of it.

although it doesn't add a calendar event of a flag , but it does show the "reminder" dialog box on the recipient's list > it did want I want it to do.
