Hi,

I am still using Outlook 97 but will be upgrading in the next month,
I can copy the PST file from my work computer ( computer 1) easily enough,
but after I copy it into the relevant folder into my home computer (computer
2), the most recent additions I made in Computer 1 appear twice in the
restored file in computer 2. i.e I make an all day event for 28/03/2007, but
when I open the file in Computer 2, this appears as a two day
event.extending from 28/03/07 and 29/03/07 - the end time changes to the
next day, so I have to go through each event and modify the dates to be
single days again. I am doing something wrong??

THanks for any assistance.

There appears to be a mismatch int he DST settingins, either in Windows or
in the Outlook Calendar, between the two machines.

By the way, your subject contains the word "importing". NEVER import from a
PST into Outlook. There's no need, you lose data, and you can corrupt your
mail profile. In addition, dropping a PST into the default folder without
making sure you do not overwrite another PST of the same name is a bad idea.
If you're including a second PST from another Outlook instance, put it in a
folder other than the default one.
