I have no idea why, but for some reason Outlook keeps changing every entry I
have for an Anniversary that happened on 4/1/2000 to 3/31/2000, I really
can't figure it out, is this a known problem?

Is it staying an all day event or changing to 11 pm to 11 pm etc? if the
hours are changing, you changed time zones on the computer after creating
the appointment

Yes it is staying as an All Day event. And it is only happening on the
Anniversaries that were set for 4/1/2000, the 20+ other anniversaries are not
having the issue. It is very perplexing. And it is only doing it with my
office computer (running 2003) my personal computer (running OfficeXP) is not
having that issue. In the past I have noticed what happens when I need to
change time zones but the anniversaries are being changed in the Details Tab
of the Contacts where the date is set. And for some reason it changes both
spouses and a 3rd person in my contacts who was also married on the same day,
however it doesn't change any of the 3 contacts birthdays which is set much
the same way. Very VERY odd, and confusing, and changes it no matter how
often I adjust it back from 3/31/2000 to 4/1/2000 and resave the contact. (I
guess one plus side, with the amount of times I have tried to fix it, I
probably will never forget their anniversary at this point.)

Are you syncing with a handheld device?

Yes - a Blackberry. Here again it is syncing properly between my Laptop
(Office XP), and gets changed when I sync against the office Computer (Office
2003). Because of a concern of my address getting mixed up a while ago, I
created a completely different contact list that does not sync with the
Blackberry. So on my Laptop I have created a "Backup Contact List Laptop"
and on my Office Computer I created a "Backup Contact List Office". However,
even in the backup list for the Office Computer, the date gets changed. I
was hoping there was a "Log" that was generated, that may show if it is an
internal (Outlook), or an external (Blackberry Software - maybe) that was
causing the change. Today at work I'll try not activating the blackberry
software and change the dates and restart the computer and see if the dates
still change and will be happy to let you know.

This may just be a case of all the planets aligning at the right time and
causing a gremlin to play around with the data. If the change in dates was
also happening with my home computer (using all the same software except for
the version of office), it would be a lot easier to say it was an external
program somehow changing the date, but since the change is not happening at
home, the fingers are just pointing at a glitch in my office computer.
