SYMPTOMSNon-recurring appointments imported from Microsoft Schedule+ into Microsoft Outlook 98 may be off by one hour. CAUSEThis problem may occur if the receiving computer had its time zone changed from a time zone with daylight savings time (such as Pacific time) to a time zone that does not support daylight savings time (such as Arizona time). This can result in the daylight savings option being set, although it is not valid for the new time zone. RESOLUTIONTo work around this problem, use either of the following methods, and then remove and re-import the appointments: Change the computer's time zone back to the old time zone that had daylight savings time selected. Then, turn off the daylight savings time option and reselect the new time zone.-or- Make a modification to the system registry to turn off daylight savings time. MORE INFORMATIONOutlook expresses the time assigned to non-recurring appointments in the imported schedule file as Greenwich mean time (GMT). When importing, Outlook applies the current time zone data to the GMT to compute the actual time to schedule the incoming appointments. Changing the time zone after the import is complete does not affect the time computed during the import process. Therefore, the following procedures will not correct the time of appointments imported with an invalid daylight savings time setting. You must manually correct, or remove and re-import appointments with incorrect times, using the correct time zone and daylight savings time settings. Deselecting the Daylight Savings Time OptionTo Deselect the Daylight Savings Time option, follow these steps:
