Your Office Help admits this is a problem with no current solution. It's
ridiculous for Christmas Day (for example) to be displayed across 2 days just
because you've moved between time-zones. It's a very annoying anomaly, and
it must be easy for you to fix. Thank you.

Justin, I agree completely. This has been bugging me for years. I posted
the following, and found your post afterwards.

I think All Day Events are not handled correctly in Outlook. I have
birthday, anniversary, and other All Day Events in my calendar. When I
travel and change the time zone on my computer, all appointments, including
All day Events, are adjusted to the new time zone. This means that these All
Day Events overlap over two days--not very appropriate for birthdays,
anniversaries, and the like. My recomendation is to not adjust All Day
Events for the new time zone.

I have had a similar problem with copying my calendar to use off-site. That
is a long story in itself, but what happens is the all day events are spread
over two days - but not because of the time zone. It starts to appear around
what would be daylight savings time (the computer adjusts but the calendar,
being a copy, does not). So it's really confusing when your fine for two
months, then suddenly you're seeing doubled events, then a few months down
it's fine again.
If that's not bad enough, try explaining what's going on in a meeting full
of older computerphobes.

I can understand why they would want time-zone changes to occur, but make it
an option for advanced users. Microsoft Programmers seems to have something
backwards: Advanced/Business features are set as "on" at all times (or are
the only option). Don't take away features--just set them as "off" until you
choose your setting: "Hi, I'm a personal user." Offer this as an OPTION for
people that would like it, but don't automatically do it to all day features.
I put all of my birthdays on the calendar feature (some 150 birthdays), then
moved timezones. What a disaster!!! I'm STILL working on fixing them all.
It's a process that is unnecessary and aggravating.

it's not going to change in the next version, but it's easier to deal with
if export to a text file, change the time zone then import.

As a personal and business power user of Outlook for many years, I still am
not sure what you mean by this. I guess if I played around with exporting
all of my calendar items into a text file, I'd see what you mean? I'm not
sure where I'd change the time zone and how that would affect any other
add-ons.

You can export it as a CSV, then use Excel to change the dates, then
reimport.
