How can I do it so when a button is pressed, the entry on the DateTimePicker is created into a system reminder, with a MsgBox.

What I have tried:

Im a bit of a newbie and I am genuinely stuck. I have tried searching YouTube, but they all send the value to a textbox, and then set the reminder. But I am wondering on how to set the reminder, by simply selecting a value from the DateTimePicker, and clicking a button.

Thanks!

I changed up the question, now I want it to go directly to a reminder when a button is clicked, whereas previously I wanted it to go to a DataGridView and then create it

Which is what the answers in your previous question pointed to.

The logic is much the same. Check the value and if it is near the reminder date, display the reminder message.
