Outlook Appointments issue ? wacky behavior

[Xavier]

We use Outlook 2002 with Exchange 2000.

Suddenly multiple user email/calanders called reporting
that appoinments which had been scheduled for 1 complete
day are now spanned over 2 or 3 days.

Also when creating a new appointment I noticed that when
I checked the all day event it suddenly spaned over 2 or
3 days just by checking the box and if I unchecked it
it would roll back to the correct date I would check it
again a second time and it would then stay as an all day
event for current day.

Has anyone ever seen this behavior.

Thanks
Xavier

I'm having this same problem with further mutations.
Several people have suggested looking into Daylight
Savings Time, which I have. This is not the issue.

If I open a one day event and click scheduling, start
time and end time go from 12 AM to 12 AM of the next
day. But if I open the same event on another user's
machine, the start and end time are extended another
day, 'all day event' is not selected, and the little
clock icons appear. Fixing the view on the second
machine mutates it on the original.

This must be a setting issue, but I haven't found out
where to fix it yet.

I have the same problem as well...

We are running SBS 2003 and daylight savings time is not the problem
for me either.

I also have appointments that are disappearing...

I worked with a MS knowledge base "concierge" but he could find
nothing on the subject...

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

We are also having a lot of problems with this. The problems started before
daylight savings and we are having the same problems explained in the posts
above. I have checked the settings and all of the machines are set up in the
same manner. We are using Outlook 2003 with Exchange 2000.

We are experiencing the exact same issue. It started to occur about 2
months ago when we started to install a few new Windows XP Pro PC's w/
Office 2003 onto our SBS 2000 network with Exchange 2000. We noticed
that some calendar appointments spanned to two days (Off by 1 hour at
midnight) when users of the new PC's would create new appointments. I
checked and verified that all of the computers are setup to the
correct timezone and DST accordingly. When DST rolled around this
month suddenly more issues 'popped' up. Appointments during the
middle of the day that didn't span all day were adjusted by an hour.
Still, all of the PC's held the correct settings. As did Outlooks
time settings. I even have all of the PC's syncing time w/ the server
at every login. I have tried removing the time syncing on login to
see if that was causing a problem, but it didn't help.

All of the responses I seem to see is to check the DST settings. Is
anyone at MS trying to recreate this problem?
