MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / October 2005An "all day event" in the calendar should not depend on time zone
I'm doing a decent amount of business travel, in different time zones. When I enter an "all day event" in Outlook, it is entered related to my current time zone. When I switch time zones, the event appears to go across multiple days - it remembers the day when it was entered and stops being an all day event. That's not right. [Outlook 2003] Yes it is right... outlook (like all mail clients) uses UTC time and offsets the items based on the time zone setting of the local computer. The fix: use dual zones.

However, I still want an "all day event" to be an all day event whichever time zone I'm in. I don't care about the day boundary of the time zone I'm not in at the time. This is a suggestion - I don't want "all day events" to show up beyond one day.
