DST - incorrect times from March 12 through April 1

Post by stev »

Electronic calendars on desktops running Microsoft Windows may be displaying incorrect times from March 12 through April 1. :?

This year, daylight saving time will begin three weeks early, on March 11. It will also end one week later than in other years, on November 4. This change is causing confusion in electronic and automated scheduling functions for businesses using Microsoft Office products. #-o

Electronic calendars in most Microsoft Windows applications are displaying meeting times an hour later than originally scheduled. :rolleyes:

SO .... Where do I find a patch for this problem ??? :shock:

I live in IN so I'm still getting used to DST in the first place since we only started using it about a year ago.
