Thanks for the calrification. Please note that the event is starting on 5:30 PM, 16th Jan, 2008 with TZID=America/New_York but if my machine's local time in IST then it will start on 17th Jan, 2008. How will you solve this then ?

END:VTIMEZONE</gd:recurrence> Is this wrong because it doesnt contain a BYDAY element ? This event occurs every Wednesday. BYDAY is optional according to RFC 2445. I am downloading this event on my machine. If there is no BYDAY, how will i convert the local time in the ical to my machine's time ? If the DTSTART is Wednesday, then every recurrence of a weekly event will be on a Wednesday. Here's the RFC: Information, not contained in the rule, necessary to determine the various recurrence instance start time and dates are derived from the Start Time (DTSTART) entry attribute. For example, "FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=1" doesn't specify a specific day within the month or a time. This information would be the same as what is specified for DTSTART. -- Ray ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
