Default Shared Calendar Timezone issue.

For what it's worth, I posted this suggestion today. After I did, I read
your post. I agree with you, but I haven't seen MS answer.
"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've seen this posted several times but could not figure out a specific
answer. We have users in 2 different timezones. When an all day event is
created in say the east coast. It spans 2 days on the west coast. This
happens because an all day event on the east coast spans 12-12. Which in
turn on the west coast spans 9-9 which makes it span 2 days. This part we
understand. What we don't understand is why an all day event would change
times at all, no matter what timezone your in. Shouldn't it just stay to all
day on that date. Does MS have a fix for this? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
