I've been using Alarming Events by CE Software (the About box says they 
can be reached at (515) 224-1995.  They're in Iowa.  It's primarily a 
calendar/reminder program, but you can put "to do" items on the calendar, 
and they show up every day until you mark them "done" (and the program 
records when you do so).  It's a DA, so you can always get at it.  I have 
run into some problems with event notifications (pop-up alert boxes) 
causing my Mac to lock up or other apps to "unexpectedly quit", though.  
The program uses the CE Toolbox, and what came with the version I've got 
is CE Toolbox 1.4.  I've seen some postings that the current version is 
1.6, so perhaps it fixes these problems (speaking of which, I saw a 
posting that said somebody had downloaded CE Toolbox from someplace, but 
it didn't say where.  Could somebody let me know where I can get the new 
version?).
