Really shouldn't be happenning now. If it is a 8AM appointment in Chicago,
it should winfd up on your calender in Amsterdam at 3PM (think that's
right). That is because of the way it is stored. It stores in GMT based on
what the chicago office has their zone set, anbd enrters for you based on
what you have your zone set, making the 'virtual' times the same. Great for
a 'virtual' meeting such as a telecon.

Have they changed how they are sending the appointments? Sent via Outlook
calendar? You did set your TZ right? Have they in Chicago gotten a new PC,
new software?

Long standing problem... appointment times are stored in GMT and shift
according to the timezone selected vs the timezone selected when the
appointment was entered.

Strange thing. It is only happening since I changed to a new iPaq and
the most recent ActiveSync. Is the problem related to this new version
of ActivSync? Didn't have the problem on my old iPaq and old
ActiveSync (not sure about the version).
