How to change time-zone in vCal-files from standard GMT to GMT+1?

P

PS

I want to import a .VCS with a lot of important appointments. Importing goes
fine, but all the appointment are 1 hour later in Outlook. I think Outlook
does this because my time-zone is GMT+1 en the times in the VCS-file are all
GMT. How can I solve this problem? (I'm using Outlook 2007)

The times in the VCS should be expressed in GMT and then Outlook should
adjust them based on your time zone. What time zone do you have set here:
Tools menu > Options > Calendar > Time Zone

PS

First of all, thank you for your quick response.
My time-zone in my Outlook settings is "GMT+1: Amsterdam, Berlin...". (Which
is correct, I do live in Holland)

If I import my vCal-file [which contains app. 200 appointments (my school
schedule for next two semesters)] Outlook does adjust the time zone. But I
want Outlook to NOT adjust the time-zones.

Because in the times in the vCal-file are local times (GMT+1) and Outlook
thinks they are GMT.

For example in the vCal:
BEGIN:VEVENT
SUMMARY:Mechatronics Project C
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:WBTP211=0D=0AMechatronics Project
DTSTART:20070903T104500
DTEND:20070903T124500
END:VEVENT

The times in this file are GMT+1, local time (1045h and 1245h). But in my
Outlook Agenda is said 11.45h and 13.45, which is wrong (I want it to be 1045
and 1245).

I hope that you have a solution.

Thanks in advance!
