If you are getting the offset from the gettimezoneinfo(), that is the servers offset, not the remote locations offset.

Can't I set a specific time zone for a CF App? [heur SPAMTRAP] Thanks to all for the replies. It really shockes me that a simple mechanism to change the timezone of a particular app was never added to CF. I'm sure this has been a problem for many over the years. Dave pointed me to a simple UDF that did the trick. Thanks Dave! Regarding the question about remembering to change the offset when we go back to standard time, I don't think this that is an issue, is it? As long as timeZoneInfo.UTCtotalOffset increments to reflect the new offset, I can just use Application.TimeZone = -(timeZoneInfo.utcHourOffset+1) right? Again, thanks all for your replies.
