INTRODUCTION
This article discusses how Microsoft Office Live Meeting handles daylight-saving time through the Live Meeting graphical user interface (GUI) and through the Live Meeting application programming interface (API).



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2003 and Microsoft Office Live Meeting version 4.4 behave differently depending on whether you use the Live Meeting GUI or the Live Meeting API to interact with Live Meeting.

Live Meeting GUI
If you create a meeting as an organizer or an administrator, and you pick a time zone that is currently observing daylight-saving time, the Live Meeting service will automatically make adjustments to the start and stop times for that time zone so that they are correct.

Live Meeting API
If you create a custom software program that uses the Live Meeting API, the custom software program must do the following:
 * Determine whether a time zone observes daylight-saving time.
 * Specify the dates when daylight-saving time starts and stops.
 * Make all the appropriate date and time conversions before sending the meeting date and time to your Live Meeting Conference Center.

Note Currently, the Live Meeting API function ListTimeZones does not return the start and stop dates for time zones that observe daylight-saving time.
