Since this is the first year for the DST changes and no other changes are anticipated for now, it should persist for upcoming years. However, you know our politicians... never say never.

| Wow. Perhaps I'll get a chance to read through this, but looks

| Bottom line, now that I went in and fixed the events that were
| affected, should this problem no longer recur? Or do I need to do
| anything proactively now?
|
| Thanks again.

||| Last month, I made a year long "on call" schedule using Outlook.
||| Each day there are a series of "appointments" that I set up, such
||| as "Doctor A on call". "Doctor B Off". "Doctor C On Vacation".
||| Worked great, as I liked the ability to drag and drop appointments
||| as I created the schedule, much easier than by hand.
|||
||| Today, I went to make a couple of revisions, and I noted that all
||| of the appointments in the month of March had been changed. Each
||| individually was now spanning 2 days. For example, March 10
||| appointment for "Doctor C On Call" was now spanning March 10-11.
||| When looking at the appointment in detail, the date of the
||| appointment had changed to include both days; the time said 1 am
||| to 1 am; and all day event remained checked. Very bizarre, and
||| very much a pain as I had to manually go into each appointment and
||| change them back to include only the one day, with appropriate
||| midnignt to midnight time.
|||
||| Very scary, all that hard work and somehow the computer changed
||| dozens of appointments.
|||
||| Between the time I set up the schedule and now, I did convert from
||| the Trial version to the full version by activating with a product
||| key (purchased from a store), but I have no idea if this is when
||| the bug occurred.
|||
||| Any ideas? Is the software this unstable?
