Web Calendar Error

[sparky]

when saving my calendar as a web page, the dates after Jan 1 2005 are off by
one day. January 1 shows as a friday instead of a saturday, so all my events
have the right date but show on the wrong day of the week. all my week long
events are sunday through thursday instead of monday through friday and all
my saturday events are shown on fridays. Any ideas?

Not a particularly helpful response, Milly. What is going to be done about
this? Upgrading to Office 2003 is not necessarily a viable option for every
organization, especially those in large corporations that have to run new
releases through IT approval testing centers and are usually 2-3 years behind
in versions because of it. This is going to cause problems for all of 2005.

Probably nothing is going to be done about it since Outlook 2000 is now past
its basic support period. For alternative methods of publishing an Outlook
calendar as a web page, see http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/olpubcal.htm

thanks all for the help. How can a company that manages to integrate so many
functions through so many software packages be so inept? even the wristwatch
I bought in 1982 remembers what day of the week it is. the only explaination
that makes any sense is that this "bug" is just another MS feature which just
happens to affect a software product outside its basic support period.
another gadfly problem nudging you toward the latest version. unfortunately
iCal isn't the answer yet, maybe Novell Groupwise...
