We have successfully applied patches everywhere. The problem children are
those people who use the above setting in Outlook Calendar [Tools, Options,
Calendar Options, Time Zone]. Their primary time zone (EST -5) is correct,
but their additional time zone (CST -6) is off by 2 hrs, not the normal 1.
If they reverse time zones (CST vs EST) the problem does not go away. Have
tried numerous things, (resetting primary, deselecting this option, close,
then re-enable) to no avail.

Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions? Possibly a slip through the cracks. I
assume it will be ok when 'normal' DST kicks in but why wait? Befuddled for
sure as these users travel & is disconcerting for them.

thanx

it should be ok when April 1 rolls around but it should be ok now too, as
CST was updated too.

So you are seeing one column in the day view with ET @ 12 and CT @ 2, right?

That's what the users see. I figured 4/1 would 'resolve' the issue, but what
about Oct/Nov, and then next year?

thank you

if the problem persists, it will affect them for 1 week in the fall and 3
each spring. But I would expect it to eventually go away - the behavior is
not normal and whatever is causing it may eventually get corrected.
