Can't sync with Palm. All Day appointments are weird

Well, not sure if this is apalm issue or an outlook issue or what but I have
a strange issue.

Have Outlook 2003 and a Handspring Visor (old) with Palm software 4.1.4e.
I've had this problem once before and don't think I ever figured out a
solution.

Wife got a new PC. Copied her PST file from old to new. Wiped out the PDA to
start from scratch.

Setup Outlook and it's working just fine.

When I do a sync, it errors out and says something like:

"The recurring all day item that starts at xx/xx/xx at 1:00AM could not be
sync'd. Split it into 2 parts"

The items are in Outlook as "All Day" appointments and Outlook sets them as
Midnight to Midnight. For whatever reason, the stupid PDA thinks they are all
trying to start at 1:00AM and go until 1:00AM the next day

I thought maybe daylight savings tie was affecting it so I changed the PC to
an April date and set the time ahead but it had no effect. Does anyone know
what would cause this to happen?

Only thing I can think of is to go through all these appointments and make
them not all day appointments but that would be a lot of extra work.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

This is clearly a DST issue doe to a recent update you received via Windows
Update that is intended to address the new DST rule changes. Apparently
your Handspring has not been updated to understand the new rules. Contact
your vendor and ask them if there will be an update for the device.
