Default Please stop all-day calendar events moving with time-zone chan

I have had a similar problem with copying my calendar to use off-site. That
is a long story in itself, but what happens is the all day events are spread
over two days - but not because of the time zone. It starts to appear around
what would be daylight savings time (the computer adjusts but the calendar,
being a copy, does not). So it's really confusing when your fine for two
months, then suddenly you're seeing doubled events, then a few months down
it's fine again.
If that's not bad enough, try explaining what's going on in a meeting full
of older computerphobes.

Justin, I agree completely. This has been bugging me for years. I posted
the following, and found your post afterwards.

I think All Day Events are not handled correctly in Outlook. I have
birthday, anniversary, and other All Day Events in my calendar. When I
travel and change the time zone on my computer, all appointments, including
All day Events, are adjusted to the new time zone. This means that these All
Day Events overlap over two days--not very appropriate for birthdays,
anniversaries, and the like. My recomendation is to not adjust All Day
Events for the new time zone.

Your Office Help admits this is a problem with no current solution. It's
ridiculous for Christmas Day (for example) to be displayed across 2 days just
because you've moved between time-zones. It's a very annoying anomaly, and
it must be easy for you to fix. Thank you.
