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! -- B'rgds, Vinnie |

Did you then apply the TZMOVE.exe patch for Outlook after you applied the O/S
DST patch? -- Kathleen Orland Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ http://www.howto-outlook.com/ "Uncle Vinnie" wrote: Using Outlook 2000 and Win XP...

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. -Peter "K.

Thank you Peter.. that makes sense.. Sounds like I should not have applied
the patch... Odd, why didn;t I see Kathleen's post??? I see it down at the bottom of yours... It is definitely not on the thread off my server... I will check that other patch as well... -- B'rgds, Vinnie "Peter Durkee" wrote in message ... Here's why that happens.
