SYMPTOMS
If you set an annually recurring appointment on the Pocket Outlook Calendar for February 29, 2000, and then synchronize the Calendar with Outlook and subsequently edit the item in Outlook, you may receive the following error message the next time you synchronize Calendar with Outlook:

The following Recurring Event cannot be written to Microsoft Outlook due to an unknown error. Error 80180f04. The item will be skipped. Recurring Event WinCE 1 Start: 2/29/00 End: 2/29/00

The error occurs even though Outlook has adjusted the recurring appointment to February 28 on subsequent years.
