When I opened outlook today all of my calendar events are now covering two
days. The correct date (such as good friday) and the previous day. A clock
icon appears at each end of the two day event. This only applies to all day
events.

Did you switch time zones?

Yes I did. I went from Centrl to Arizona time. When I set it back to
Central everything is OK. Is there a way to get it to work correctly when
switching zones?

Set yourself to Central, Export your calendar folder to a CSV file, delete
all the item, set your time zone to Arizona, import the CSV file

I am suddenly having the same problem. I have Outlook 2003, and am running
XP V 5.1

However - I have not changed time zones. I have lived in California since I
purchased this computer. All of a sudden, the all-day events are spread
across two days. Any reason why this would happen?

I read the following suggestion: "Set yourself to Central, Export your
calendar folder to a CSV file, delete all the item, set your time zone to
Arizona, import the CSV file"

Would this solve my problem? If so, would somebody please explain what a
CSV file is, and how to export my calendar folder to a CSV file, how to
delete all calendar items, and then how to import the CSV files? Thanks in
advance for the assistance.

It might if you set yourself to a timezone where the events are once again
one day long, export, delete, reset time zone & import.
