    I think you may be in the wrong forum as you are in Excel. Anyways, I think what you want is something similar to this:

    Somewhere in your code, you should have similar to...

    followed by this statement:

    Now you want to make sure you add to objOutApp this:

    Re: VBA - Sending outlook task is working fine but the reminder is not getting set.

    Thank you for your reply. Sorry for the inconvenience for posting in wrong forum.
    I am new user for this. Actually I am trying to do this in Excel. Can you please suggest on which forum I can post my Query.
    When I am trying with below code,
    With using .Display property - I am getting "since you are no longer the owner of this task, the task reminder has been turned off."
    Without using .Display property - Sending outlook task is working fine but the reminder is not getting set.

    Dim objOutApp As New Outlook.Application
    Dim objOutTask As Outlook.TaskItem

    Set objOutTask = objOutApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)

    With objOutTask
    .Display
    .Subject = "Task Subject"
    .Body = "Task Body"
    .DueDate = "Jul 06 2018"
    .Recipients.Add ("colleague email address")
    .ReminderTime = "Jul 06 2018 11:15 AM"
    .ReminderOverrideDefault = True
    .ReminderSet = True
    .Assign
    .Send
    End With
    objOutTask = Nothing
    objOutApp = Nothing

    Please do the needful.
