Daylight Savings Time

Please check your Outlook calendar for the week of October 27 to ensure that all appointments are listed at the correct time.  The dates for Daylight Savings Time (DST) changed in 2007 and Outlook should have been updated at that time.

If you notice that your appointments are off by an hour, you can correct them manually or you can download a tool from Microsoft to scan your calendar.  Please feel free to download the Time Zone Data Update Tool.  Once you install it, find it in Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft Office Outlook Tools -> Time Zone Daylight Savings Update.  Make sure the correct time zone is selected (GMT -05:00) and click OK.  It will scan your calendar and fix it if needed.
