called "UTC" equates us as having changed time zones and
changes the appointment times accordingly. The only work-
around I can think of is to turn off the "adjust daylight
savings time" toggle and the "automatic synchronize time"
toggle in your date and times properties. But I hate that
because I have to correct the time manually from then on.

There must be a better way. And it's frustrating that
there doesn't seem to be away to tell MicroSoft they have
this problem, cuase they don't seem to know.

I had a similar experience, because I had set some of my appointments on a
second computer that was set to Mountain time instead of Pacific. Are you by
chance using Outlook on two different computers, or restored a backup onto a
computer set in a different time zone?
Good luck,
Duane

I have the same problem except with our company 1/2 the people see all day
appointment box checked and the month view shows as an all day appointment.
The other half sees the appointment span 2 days on the month view and the
all day appointment box is not checked. Which ever group checked the all day
appointment box the other group does not see it checked when they open thier
calendar.

I have a custom appointment form running in a public calendar that we
thought was causing the problem but finally I looked at this newsgroup and
realized lots of people are having the same problem.

Sue Mosher! Please help us!

s as all day appointments and the other half sees the appointment without
the all day appointment box checked. I
