In the above case, it would be fine to just subtract the hour offset between GMT and CST. But, that really isn't a complete solution as if it is say 1 AM GMT, it is a different day CST. Your best bet is to either make it yourself (IMHO, reinventing the wheel can be quite enjoyable, and almost definetly more suitable for your needs. Plus in Perl this could be really fun to make your own date objects and overdriving some stuff.) or to use a cool module (Date::Object is what I'd use). -will (the above message is double rot13 encoded for security reasons) Most Useful Perl Modules -strict -warnings -Devel::DProf -Benchmark -B::Deparse -Data::Dumper -Clone (a Godsend) -Perl::Tidy -Beautifier -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
