When I go into my calendar to choose my time zone all the options are GMT. Everyone's computer that I go to is UTC. There a few meetings that my calendar is off by an hour. I want to change my calendar to be UTC to but I am not sure how. We are all using Outlook 2007.

It is the same in Windows as well. It says GMT (-6:00) or any other time. All of the other computers say UTC (-6:00). I am using XP and office 2007. I am not sure if this is even my problem but it is the only thing that is different and I know the daylight savings change has messed this up in the past.

Not that it answers your question, but as GMT and UTC are the same thing.....

Daylight savings shouldn't affect it as GMT never changes. In the summer, there's BST (British Summer Time) which is GMT+1 or UTC+1

Are the other computers using Windows XP? It uses the GMT qualifier, Windows 7 uses UTC. (at least in the English US versions)

It's highly unlikely that this is the problem - it's more likely someone is not using the correct time zone and DST setting for their selected time zone and sends out meetings. If your time zone honors DST, you should choose the automatic DST update option. If your zone does not honor DST, do not use a zone that honors it then disable automatic DST updating. (A recent example: someone living in a -5UTC area that does not honor DST needed to use a -5 DST zone that does not honor DST - not US Eastern with the DST checkbox unchecked.)
