   Events tied to local time don't get affected by DST changes.  They =
only care that the local time is correct.  The issue with appts in =
Outlook are that they are stored in UTC and when you created them the =
relationship between local time and UTC was incorrect so the UTC time =
associated with the event is incorrect.  The tool you run fixes these =
incorrect times.

   There are plenty of applications that look at your Outlook data =
without Exchange or you having run Outlook.  I couldn't begin to tell = you
the features of all of these.
