SYMPTOMS
========
If you use the Korean version of Outlook Web Access (OWA) and you try to create
or edit meeting requests that fall on February 29 of a leap year, you cannot
create or edit the meeting requests, and you may receive the following error
message:
Microsoft Internet Explorer
You must specify a valid date. Check your entries in this dialog box to make
sure they represent a valid date.
CAUSE
=====
This problem can occur because the data-parsing code in Outlook Web Access does
not account for some special situations that occur if you use certain Asian
operating system versions.
