Here's why that happens. Outlook remembers appointment times essentially
as Greenwich Mean Time, so when you entered an appointment for lunch at
noon on March 20th Outlook had to convert that to GMT. It applied the
rules of your timezone, which said that on March 20th you'd be five hours
behind GMT, and entered the appointment time as 5 PM. Then you applied the
timezone patch for the new dates, and the rules changed. Now, when you
look at that appointment, Outlook, knowing that you are four hours behind
GMT under the new rules, subtracts four hours from the 5 PM GMT to display
the appointment at 1 PM, one hour later than it should be.

Did you then apply the TZMOVE.exe patch for Outlook after you applied the
O/S
DST patch?

Using Outlook 2000 and Win XP...
I downloaded and installed a patch from Microsoft's website, to address
the
change in Daylight Savings Time... (Northeast US).

The time on my PC is correct, however the patch has moved every
appointment
I had set up in Outlook, by one hour.. As you can imagine, now I am
double
checking every entry to get the correct time...

Why would it do this??????????

The time of day changed, not the time of the app't!

Help? Is there a fix for this fix?
Thank you!
