Hey all, I sure hope someone out there can make sense of the chaos that seems to be dates.
I recently discovered the hard way that flex dates are in UTC by
default when you create them, when you send them as a parameter to a C#
web service, you need to use the .ToLocalTime() method (in c#)
Might you have some information on where to put this exactly? It
seems like it's too late by the time the object has been created from
the result of the web service call. All it seems to contain is
Invalid Date. When I look at the object that was created in the
Network Monitor, it does seem to

I don't think you are missing anything. We have a similar problem in

Our shop cannot hardly pull the current price... If it goes up I don't
