Default appointments in UTC time format ?

Hi,
I need to import a .csv list with appointments in UTC time format.
But as far as I understand, Outlook assumes the values are in the
currently active time zone, right?
So is there no solution?

The same problem exists by the way, if I wanted to type the times
manually, because UTC is not included in the list of time formats you
can choose.
.... which is somehow pervert (literally speaking), as Outlook uses UTC
internally in order to store date and time, as far as I know!

In case "perverted" is only used only in a sexual content, I think I
should rather have said "illogical".

The definitions of "perverted" include a sense of intentionally twisting or
redirecting something away from the good, so I'd agree with "illogical". I
don't think there is malice or a deliberate intention of choosing something
not correct in Outlook's design, however it might appear sometimes. grin
