2006 added a GMT offset to the Date class which you can adjust and

Wow, I completely missed that.
I see that it returns the offset in hours... I wonder how that
works with time zones which are 30 minutes off?
It's a double so it shouldn't be a problem. I still find it easier to
work with the declares and keep it in seconds for offset
calculations. With the 2006 method you must multiply the offset by
3600 to get the .totalseconds for calculations or go through the
provided methods on the list.
Will these make it into the docs? Doubt it when the OLR still says
things like:
"Syntax
GMTOffset( Double ) as"
Oh well. The online docs are a mess anyways.
