Calendar entries automatically duplicate themselves in Outlook 200

[Randy]

I use Outlook 2003 as a standalone application for personal use.
I enter birthdays, anniversaries, etc as a recurring event. Without warning
or any known change to the system I will notice that the event is also
showing for the day after the actual event. The only way to correct this, to
my knowledge, is to manually edit the series.
Why is this happening and how do I prevent it? Is there an easier way to
delete the day after occurrence of the event.

Thank you for your help.

Are you changing time zones or anything akin to that? Events are really just
24-hour long appointments so a time zone change results in the event
happening over two days.

Thanks for answering.

I have not changed the time zone. If I had how would I correct it. When I
open the series the rule is still showing for the correct date.

After I sent the response I recalled that I did run the daylight savings
update tool issued by Microsoft. Could that have caused the problem?

Possible but I haven't seen that happen personally.
