time zone changes destroy all-day events
Every time I change time zones and change back, all my
all-day events get destroyed. Either they occur over two days or they have been split into 2 events. Knowledge base says this but is not addressing my situation: When you have all-day events on your Calendar and then change the time zone, the all-day events span two days instead of one. Outlook treats anniversaries, holidays, and birthdays as all-day events (an all-day event is defined from midnight to midnight in the local time zone). When the time zones change, all-day events move. Therefore, when you change the computer's time zone, the all-day event moves to display in the new time zone. An event, such as a holiday or birthday, will appear in the Calendar on two consecutive days. For example, a birthday could appear from 6 A.M. one day to 6 A.M. the next day. You can do one of the following: Use the additional time zone feature in Outlook to display the local time zone and do not change the operating system time zone. Correct each all-day event for the current time zone setting. Change the time zone back to the one used when the items were created. |

I have a similar problem but it involves scheduling an all day event and
include users from other time zones. My event will show up as a two day event on their calendar, and their's will do the same on my calendar. Have you discovered any workable solutions? I don't want to have to modify their events everytime I receive one. This destroys the ability for me to receive any modifications from them, plus it's just a huge pain.
