Summer resource information for UTC date conversions
I am developing reports using Microsoft SQL Builder 2.0. One of my requirements is to display time zone information by passing "Time Zone Countdown" (-08: 00) as a report parameter. Based on the offset value, we convert the UTC date to the appropriate timezone value (using VB.NET) and display the same. However, this does not take into account daily savings. Do we need to make Summer Savings changes to our conversion?
FYI, .NET Framework 3.
Thanks, Veera
