Why do birthdays & anniversaries expand to 2 days all by themselve

[jegnaczyk]

Sometimes when i open my Outlook calendar i find that b'days & anniversaries
have expanded to 2 days all by themsleves. To correct this i have to go into
each series occurrence and then click occurence and then hit okay. This is
okay for a while and then it happens again sometime later. Any hints or
advise?

Usually a mismatch between Windows' and Outlook Calendar's Daylight Saving
Time settings, especially now when you probably patched Windows (via Windows
Update) and not Outlook (with the tzmove patch).

So are you suggesting that Outlook 2007 isn't (new) DST compatible? I've
noticed the same problem with my calendar items.

Thank you Brian. That seems to explain things. i travel between east and west
coasts and change the location when I do so. Thanks

Sorry - but none of this makes sense to me - I do not travel and change my
time zone and I live in Arizona with NO DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME - BOTH WINDOWS
AND OUTLOOK ARE SET TO THE ARIZONA SETTING - birthdays still expand to 2 days
if I set them up as an ALL DAY EVENT. THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!!!!

What is the time period for the 2 days? 12-12 is normal and should not
result in them displaying across 2 days.
