RE: Reminders for tasks/deadlines

Hi Trupti

Thank you for your question. Project on its own doesn't have built in alert features like reminders. Project 2007 does enable you to add a reminder in Outlook for a task.

You may be interested in the following Microsoft article which shows how to enable a now unsupported feature called Workgroup that incorporated reminder elements.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Project 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Project 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
