Default 6 hours recurrence

WinXP, ON 2007
For the next couple of weeks I have to do something every 6 hours.
Recurrence window would not let me enter 0.25 days.
Is it possible?
Thank you.

I don't believe that's possible. The Internet is full of good alarm clock
applications, though.

No messier than any other solution since outlook doesn't support partial day
recurrences. ws.repeat appointment will make 4 individual appointments for
each day (none will use the recurrence option), which is better if you want
to make notes in the each event.
