Matt,
You got me. Have to talk to MS programmers about that! Best guess I have is
some 'rule' about when DST starts (second Saturday of the month of April,
last I knew, this one seemed awfully early in April, to me), but who decides
or knows how accurate that definition is, I certainly don't as I've not
researched it. Guess the MS programmers who wrote the C++ compiler, did not,
either?!?
Mike Nice, using the same subject, sent a URL that tells more and I'll
repeat it hear:
http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,2702929,00.html
Long story short, here is one line from the article:
"If the program was written in using Microsoft's Visual C++, the programmer
might have employed the time function in the Visual C++ Runtime Library -
and that's where the bug is."
