When you open the recurring appointment series in OWA, you may notice that all the appointments are scheduled to start one hour later than the original start time in Exchange 2000 and in Exchange 2003

Consider the following scenario:

1. You create a recurring appointment by using Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA).
2. On the computer that you are using to create the appointment, the time zone is set to (GMT +02:00) Jerusalem, and the Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings check box is selected.

When you open the recurring appointment series, you may notice that all the appointments in the series are scheduled to start one hour later than the original start time. For example, you use OWA to create a recurring appointment that occurs from 10:00 A.M. to 10:30 A.M. every Wednesday. When you open the appointment series in OWA or in Microsoft Outlook, the appointments in the series may be scheduled to occur from 11:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M.

This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:

• You create a recurring appointment that occurs before and after the daylight saving time change.
• The daylight saving time change has taken effect.
• The time zone on the computer that is running Microsoft Exchange is set to (GMT +02:00) Jerusalem.
