We've imported our Dates into a Date/Time field, and we're now running
into problems with dates in the "3 weeks early" Daylight Savings Time
(DST) change. The Date went in as the specified date at 12:00:00AM, but
when we extract a date between March 11 and April 1 inclusive the hour
is decremented to 11PM the day before and the day is decremented by one.


 

I've created a new field that is a Date field and moved the contents of
the Date/Time into date, guessing that the time would simply be
truncated, but the DST calculation takes place first and I get the wrong
date!

 

We're a few patches behind in Server 6.3 (currently at Patch 12), but
patching up to the current level is presently not an option. 

 

Has anyone worked out a solution to this (interesting but annoying)
problem?
