I do a lot of traveling for work. I make calender appointments in Outlook to keep track of my schedule & do this in advance. If I need to be at a customer site at 9:00 then I obviously select 9:00 when I create the appointment. Here is the problem. I live in the Chicago area & currently on the West coast.

The time on my phone automatically changes because of being in a different time zone. This also makes all of my appointments to show as being 2 hours earlier than they actually are.

An easy fix would be when I create an appointment to account for the change in time zone. In lotus notes you can create an appointment to where it occurs in a different time zone but I don't think this is an option with Outlook.

Is there a way to get around this? So that pocket Outlook doesn't update the time in my calender. This has been bugging me for months know.
