Can I "globally" change time of large number of individual meeting
 

An imported iCal calendar file scheduled 247 individual meetings for 3:00
a.m. - the events should be "all day." I can't change them as a series since
they are indivudual, not "recurring." Is there a way to select and edit them
all, or must I update 247 individual events? (They ARE in a single, unique
category.)

Can I "globally" change time of large number of individual meeting
 

If you want to go back to the .ics file, try opening it in Notepad and doing a search and replace, perhaps for the time zone.

Here is one of the events in question: can you guide me to the data that need
to be altered to make the event all day instead of a 2:00 or 3:00 a.m. (it
was actually 3:00 for some, 2:00 for others)

Whose lectionary data are you importing? I know of a couple of different sources. It might be easier for me to test with the whole original data.

I played around with various changes to the raw .vcs file to try to adjust the time zone, but couldn't get it to work consistently. The easiest solution I know is to use Simon Rundell's calendar from http://www.fathersimon.org.uk/calendar/ instead. The .ics version imported just fine for me in the Eastern (U.S.) time zone.

I don't know why the .vcs files don't work better. As the page at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...235831033.aspx explains, the dates are expressed with as UTC, but the TZ element should provide the right offset. I tried taking out the TZ and changing the time from T080000Z to T050000Z. That worked only on about half the items and still didn't produce true all-day events. It may be that the vCal import in Outlook is just flawed, but the iCal works much better.
