Default TIME ZONE CHANGE AFFECTS APPOINTMENT CALENDAR TIMES

OK, but who goes and figures out that if I have a 10am meeting in Sao Paulo
next week, but I'm currently in London then I should put the meeting down for
1pm so taht when I get to Sao Paulo and change my clock (so i don't have to
do teh calculation every time I look at the clock on the screen) it matches
up? Surely it makes more sense not to change the bloody appointment time at
all??

There is nothing that needs fixing - this is how all email clients work -
they display the times in "local" time based on your time zone setting. This
allows your appointments to move with you. You can either export the times
before changing the time zone, then import, or use outlook's dual time zone
feature if the change is temporary.

BTW - this issue is documented at both slipstick.com and outlook-tips.net,
if you want to "read more about it".

oI found that my time zone was reset to some mexican border town. I changed
it back to eastern/canada and now all my Outllok Calendar appointment times
are screwed by the offset

My suggestion is that you fix it..*Chuckles* this shouldnt happen and I am
sure you agree.
