How to NOT display time zones in Outlook 2002 invitation to meetin

[Guest]

[sorry if this is a duplicate post - my computer hung in the middle of

When I invite people to meetings through Outlook 2002, some of them are
off-site and/or don't use Outlook. When I send them a notice of meeting for
9:30 am on December 14, they get "When: Wednesday, December 14, 2005 9:30
AM-11:00 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada); Tijuana."

We're all in the same time zone & not everyone I send to is completely
computer literate... they see "Tijuana" and flip out.

TIA.

What time zone is your computer set for? It should have the correct time and
time zone and since everyone is in the same, it should be correct.

Oh, it's the correct time zone (I am in the Pacific Time zone), I just don't
need to send that info as text to everyone. It's obviously important internal
coding, but I don't think I need it plastered externally on my e-mails.
People just don't read the phrase "Pacific Time" and get hopelessly confused
- I usually have to send out 2 or 3 explanatory e-mails every time I call a
meeting.

Phooey.
Well, at least I'll stop looking for it now. Thanks.
