PIM calendar, spanning time zones
 

I like to book my flights into MS Outlook so I can visually see how a day of travel looks. I'm using Outlook 2000, and can't book a schedule item for a flight I have that "arrives" before it takes off, i.e. the appointment ends before it begins (flight departs at 5pm and "arrives" at 10am the same calendar day).

Is there another PIM calendar that is sensitive to an appointment that begins in 1 time zone and ends in another? Thanks

I don't know if this will help (from Microsoft.com):

Display Two Time Zones in Your Outlook Calendar
From Ilene Dunn, Albuquerque, New Mexico

The ability to view two time zones at the same time is very convenient if you plan conference calls or meetings with people in another time zone.

To add another time zone to your Outlook calendar:

1.On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Preferences tab.
2. Click Calendar Options.
3. Click Time Zone.
4. Select the Show an additional time zone check box.
5. In the Label box, type a description.
6. From the Time zone drop-down menu, select the time zone you want to add.
7. If you want your computer clock to automatically make daylight saving time changes, select the Adjust for daylight saving time check box. (This option is available only in time zones that use daylight saving time.)

Now you can be sure you are choosing the appropriate times when scheduling meetings and conference calls around the world.

Editor's Note: You can quickly switch your current time zone to the second time zone by clicking Swap Time Zones, which is located in the Time Zone dialog box. This affects all times displayed in Outlook as well as times displayed in other Microsoft Windows®–based programs.
