  • Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows 95, when used with:
    • the operating system: Microsoft Windows 95
  • Microsoft Outlook 98
This article was previously published under Q157697

SYMPTOMS

If the Windows 95 screen saver starts on top of a Schedule+ appointment reminder, you cannot use the keyboard to dismiss the screen saver. However, you can still use the mouse to dismiss the screen saver.

This issue has also been reported when using Microsoft Outlook 98.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Schedule+ version 7.0 Windows 95 client. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

All keystrokes used in an attempt to dismiss the screen saver are actually processed by the reminder dialog box. Therefore, if you press either the ENTER or ESC key, the reminder is removed, and you may miss the appointment altogether.
