The START Times for several events overlaps with other events for the SAME
day (IE All) . If I need to run something during a longer event, I always
ended the first instance, ran the single event, then ran the last part of
the original event, I NEVER overlap the event times. I think this is ok
when using different days in there, but not for same days...

EG: Event 3 overlaps events 1 and 2, and Event 5 overlaps event 4. 

The next thing is that for the last Event, an END time of 24:00 is also the
same time as 00:00. I think the docs read that this should be ok, but I had
issues with it many years ago, so I always had a final event END time of
23:59 regardless. I have never missed a day rollover since I started doing
that back in 1994...

See if that helps.

Cheers..............pk.
