Trip Tracker bug

[MetsFan]

Despite the issues with PPC version, I've been using the desktop version of Trip Tracker since I bought it since it at least adds flights, etc. to my Outlook calendar which then sync back to my Windows Mobile phone. However, I have found one bug in that the current version does not handle the daylight savings time changes implemented last year. Flights I had entered for 3/26 - 3/27 showed up on my calendar 1-hour off. Hopefully you've tested that in the version you're working on.

What is your setting at Tools->Options->Calendar-> 'Shift Appointment times based on time zones' ?

That option is turned on. I've never had an issue with the times showing up in Outlook correctly. It's always handled flights in/out of different timezones the way I would expect it to. You enter the departure and arrival time based on local time of the airport you're flying in and out of and it it automatically put on my calendar for the current time zone of the PC.

For example, if my itinerary has a flight leaving Chicago at 10am and landing in Denver at 12pm and my computer is set to to Central Standard Time, the appt on my calendar will be from 10am - 1pm. This works as I would expect it to today.

My trip the last week of March though landed in the time when DST was extended earlier into the year. Therefore, all the flight times were 1 hour off.

Odds are the problem is because TripTracker was released by TwoPeaks long before the shift in Daylight Savings implementation dates was a reality. Most older apps were fixed by a patch issued by the developer...

You can connect the dots from there...

I understand that. But I wanted to bring it to iambic's attention so they could make sure they test for it in the new version.
