Okay - I have the weirdest thing happening on my PWS. I have a fundraiser this Wednesday, and there is an automatic reminder scheduled to send out tomorrow. I wanted to add some info to the reminder, so I did, and then sent it to myself. Well, the added info, and the show info is correct, but the automatically generated part is for a fundraiser that I did back in 2007!!!:eek::eek::eek: WHAT?I went back in, and I can find no way to change any of that info. I ended up having to delete the automatic reminder, until I can call HO, and figure out what's wrong....
 
A lot of strange things are happening lately.
 
Glad you sent it to yourself first! Hope they can figure it out quickly.
 
Did you do a FR in 2007 for the same group - then pull up the old one and change the info for this one? If so, that would explain it.

No - that fundraiser was for a totally different organization. Even the Subject Header when I sent it to myself referenced the 2007 fundraiser. The strange thing is that there is no way to change that default info. There must have been a way to do it back then...

did you redo it then click the "Save this format" (or whatever it says....) button?

That's just it - I have no option to redo it for the reminder....just for the invitation itself. Isn't that strange?
I'm sure that's what I did before - that's why that's what is coming up - but now I don't have an option to change it!:eek:
 
bummer..........
