   The twice a year EST/EDT change is part of the relationship.  That it =
switches twice a year remains but when it switches between EST and EDT =
changed.  That is the relationship change to which a refer.

   I don't know how recurring appts are handled in Outlook.  It's =
complex as you can make changes to either the series or individual = events
and everything just works.  Ignore these and consider single = appts since
these are what people were complaining of being off after = the government
DST change.

  Yes it did, but it that has always been true, it changes twice a year =
as has=20
  been the case since I created the event in 2000. So you are saying =
when I=20
  created a recurring event in 2000 the system created a thousand =
separate=20
  events and used the EST/EDT standard to do so and now that this =
standard has=20
  changed some of those events are scheduled for the wrong time and so =
this is=20
  why a separate patch was required?

  So if I go and create a new recurring appointment today, it should be=20
  correct and not require a patch because outlook will use the corrected =

  timezone information now?
