How to create reminder from date entered on datagridview VB.NET

Question

I have created a DataGridView based Reminders App, how can I do it so the dates entered into the Grid, are then converted into reminders, with the pop-up showing the Reminders Information (Reminder Name).

Alternatively, how can I code it, so that the dateTimePicker (dateDue in below code), prints in the DataGridView, but also sets a reminder, with the Task Name being shown with the reminder.

What I have tried:

Dim dgvGeneralRow As Object() = New Object() {Nothing, txtTaskName.Text, txtTaskTag1.Text, cmbPriority.SelectedItem.ToString(), dateDUE.Value.ToString(), txtLink.Text, txtNoteEntry.Text}

You could use Notifyicon that will show "Balloons" on the Windows taskbar, see: Visual Basic NotifyIcon for Taskbar Notification[^]

Also you could use the Windows Task Scheduler, see: Schedule tasks from command line[^]
