DST strikes again, am I the only one?
I'm running Exchange 2003 SP2. I think I have all the patches installed, especially the ones for DST, KB 933360for the Windows 2003 Standard server and KB 926666for the Exchange 2003 SP2. I have also installed the DST update on the PDA's and last year I ran the DST tool to fix all of the calendar events. I'm using Office 2007 on my PC. When I create an all-day event for March 10th on the PC, the PDA shows it as March 9th. Regular events are an hour early. This is a problem that all of my users are having, I had no problems last year after I ran the updates. Did I miss something, is anyone else having problems? Any help would be appreciated. Tim

Here is the solution Additional Steps RequiredOn some Windows Mobile powered device the DST change may fail to initialize after applying the update. To ensure the DST update works properly on your device, the following steps should be taken: After installing the update, change your default time zone value to any different value: To change time zone settings on your Pocket PC Phone, tap Start > Settings > System tab > Clock & Alarms > Select a time zone from drop down for Home settings and save settings by tapping OK To change time zone settings on your Smartphone, click Start > Settings > Clock & Alarm > Date and Time > Select a time zone from drop down and save settings by clicking Done Change your time zone back to your default settings: Follow the instructions in step 1 Note: your device will automatically return to the default local time zone if local network time is enabled on the device.

The additional steps fixed all of my events showing up an hour early. Unfortunately, All-Day events are still a day early.
