Active Sync & full day events

When the PDA & PC calendars are synced all full day events are 24hrs out.

Example: Say Thursday 12th of April is a birthday and I add it to the
calendar as a full day event when it is synced the calendar in Outlook always
changes to the day previous whilst the PDA still says the 12th.

Anyone got any ideas? I've never noticed this happen before and asking
everyone else I know who does this they all have the same problem.

Did you apply the DST correction to your PDA? DO you have your PDA accept
its time from the desktop system with which it syncs?
 
I've turned the time zone function on the PDA off as it was stuffing up the
alarm (i.e. I set it for 6am but it goes off at 5am) and everytime I
disconnected from the PC it would add an hour on to the PDA time.

And yes, I tell the PDA to accept the PC time.

I believe it is being caused by the mismatch in DST settings between the PC
and the PDA. Other than that, I can't suggest anything. My Windows Mobile
PDA had no way to turn DST off or on and I still had to apply the WIndows
Mobile DST patch in order to get it working correctly.
 
I ran the DST update as well as the new ROM update but it is still doing it.
Maybe it's a windows mobile/pocket PC program fault not Outlook?

I wish I could help more. My PDA had no trouble with the transition.
Perhaps you might get a suggestion in
