Yes, MAPI stores all datetime properties in the UTC timezone and OOM only
uses the local timezone.
Are you asking how to convert local timezone to UTC? What are you trying to
do?

I have some calendar items that I'm observing with OutlookSpy. When I
open the event up with "Current Item" I see some values for "Start" and
"End" that are different from the times I see when I open it up with
"IMessage". The problem seems to be related to time zones, as the
"Current Item" times are off by 5 hours from what they are supposed to
be. The "IMessage" times are correct according to what is displayed on
the Outlook calendar.

Are the IMessage times in GMT, and the "Current Item" times in local
time?

How can you get the correct time using "Current Item" (OOM)?

Thanks,
Mark
