I have only been trying out OmniFocus for a short time so my question might have obvious answers. First, can OmniFocus send a reminder when a task is almost due? Sometimes I need a reminder :-). Second, I don't really understand flags. An item can be flagged or unflagged, but what if I want the flag to carry more information than just that the item is flagged? Can there be different types of flags?

Thanks in advance.
