Calendar Details Style - All Day vs 12-12

[Ken Post]

We're running Exchange 2003 sp2 with Outlook 2003 clients. We print
daily calendars using "Calendar Details Sytle" (1 day per page, events
listed without the grid, with the time in the left column).

This may have always been the case, but we're just noticing it now:

We have many multi-day all day events (all day checkbox checked, with
a different start and end date) and print using the Calendar Details
Style date. It seems that if the event starts in the future, All Day
will show when we print for that day, but if that even is in progress
( we print the 1/16/2008 calendar on 1/16, instead of in advance, or
if we print the 1/17 calendar on 1/16, but there's an all day event
from 1/16-1/17), it shows 12-12 and not all day.

For example take a look at this mock print-out.
Printed on 1/15/2008 for events on the next day, 1/16

All Day Mutlti day event from 1/16-1/20

All Day Single day event on 1/16

12:00 am - 12:00 am Multi day event from 1/15-1/19


in the above example, we'd expect the 3rd event to show all day, but
it doesn't because it has already started at the time of printing.


The same day (1/16) printed on 1/16

12:00 am - 12:00 am Mutlti day event from 1/16-1/20

All Day Single day event on 1/16

12:00 am - 12:00 am Multi day event from 1/15-1/19

now the first event also shows 12-12, since it started at the time of
printing.


If it's a single day event, it always seems to show All Day even if
printed on the same day. We want "all day" to show consistently.


Does anyone know a work around for this?

bump doesn't work in newsgroups unless you include the message you are
bumping... I can't even begin to guess what it was about from the subject
line.

If it is that important, I suppose you could print to Office Document
imaging, then export text to Word and do a find and replace on "12:00 am
- 12:00 am" with "All Day"
