Microsoft has been working on that problem and there are some files you can download for your PC to tell it about the expanded DST. I know at SMU (where everyone is supposed to use Outlook for calendars) our IT people have been scrambling to update the servers that keep all these calendars. Outlook stores all your appointments at GMT and then adjusts them to your local time. Since the local time is no longer what they originally planned the appointments now scheduled between March 11 and April 1 are adjusted to your local time incorrectly (standard rather than daylight time). dave ____________________ David M.

I have that option checked already, but the Outlook and Active Sync are still an hour off for three weeks between DST and PST. I really think it's a bug related to the late notice of our new PST. I'll go to Active Sync help and see if there's a solution. Thanks again.

Check this out.

All of the appointments I schedule for that period of time time on my pocket PC show up as an hour later on my desktop computer, and vice versa. I am assuming because Outlook got upated to refect the new Daylight Savings schedule, while ActiveSync didn't get the same update. I was just wondering if any of you have experienced this annoyance. I will probably try to upgrade ActiveSync at some point soon, and when I do, I'll report results. Dave Stahl _____ AOL now offers free email to everyone.
