Description:
Entered on 09/09/2005 at 09:36:00 by Frank Swasey:
Oracle has received reports of this problem before and have closed both of those
reports with the information that they cannot reproduce it in the desktop client for
version 10 of the calendar and therefore, it will be fixed in the next release.

I have opened a new TAR (4686709.993) asking them if it would not be possible to
produce a version of the 9.0.4.2 windows client that does not have the problem since
the 9.0.4.2.577 client for Mac does not display this behavior.

Hi John,
Problem confirmed. I will open an issue with Oracle. Perhaps they
have a newer build of the windows client that we have not received yet.
I will also enter this into footprints so we can keep track of it easier.
