Windows Time Zones (too many cities)

does anyone know how to get rid of all the city names behind the local time
zone. it seems to confuse some of my co-workers (i know :-) when they see
this in a outlook calendar entry – when i send them a meeting/calendar
event:

Zeit: Dienstag, 6. Februar 2001 15:30-19:30 (GMT+01:00) Berlin, Bern,
Brüssel, Rom, Stockholm, Wien.

Just Berlin would be fine, no Bern, Brüssels, Rom and so on. I know the
information comes from the windows clock where you can set the time zone…
but all the cities are in there and i can’t delet them.

anybody?? thankx, martin, germany.

    Either do that manually in the Registry at
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Time
    Zones
    Or get the Time Zone Editor with the Windows 95 Kernel Toys
    (http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/contents/WUToys/W95Kerne…)

    I do not know how this is done in Windows NT. You may want to post the
    question to a NT-related group like
    news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windowsnt.setup
