Thanks Mike I've tried that but I get a number ( eg 38698.3354861) I'm using CFMX 7
Do you know why I'm getting this? Exact code I'm using: <cfset application.austime= #now()# + #createTimeSpan(0,17,0,0)#> <cfoutput>#application.austime#</cfoutput> Ta Seamus ================ You wrote ================ Seamus I have this issue too, hosting some of my sites in teh Midwest of the >USA, when I'm in Australia. So i have an application variable called >application.austime which I set in the Application.cfc file on all my >sites. Depending on where they are located in the world, >application.austime might be set as #now()# or #now()# + >#createTimeSpan(0,16,0,0)# or whatever time difference is appropriate >depending on the relative status of daylight savings. > >Then instead of using #now()# in any of my apps, I can use >#application.austime# and when I upload the files to the server, the time >values will stlil be correct. > >And Yes, I know I could use Locale, but I developed this method of handling >it before I learned about locale.
