When importing my Calendar, the times are an hour wrong.

[Guest]

My work has a very strict network and disables all USB access. This causes me
a problem as i can't sync my work meetings to my PDA. Consequently i have my
home machine syncing with my pda and then a whole seperate Calendar on my
work machine. I decided that i would regularly export my Calendar data and
then import it on my other machine (which CAN sync with my pda). However
whenever i import the data on my other machine it imports all the meetings an
hour early.

All the help suggests checking the time settings. This makes sense as
daylight savings has just kicked in here however i have checked every time
setting i can FIND on BOTH pc's and they all are correct (GMT+10 and the
adjust for daylight savings checkbox ticked).

Is there anything else that could be causing this timeshift? (or does anyone
have a better way of getting my work appointments onto my PDA??)

Have you checked both the Outlook and Windows time settings?

It would appear that you have a daylight saving time mismatch between
Outlook's calendar and WIndows' clock on one of the two machines.

Thanks guys,

But i have already Checked the time and daylight savings settings in both
windows AND outlook. It seems to only be with one of the oulooks that i have
this problem... the work one exports at the correct time and imports from
others at the correct time... it is just my other machine which exports at
the wrong time. And its not all appointments but only seems to be some of
them. I Think it is those which are created in the outlook and not sync'd
from my pda.
