can be obtained from registry - see:
"HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation"
But probably better using Windows API:
call GetTimeZoneInformation()
gives struct _TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION { // tzi
LONG Bias;
WCHAR StandardName[ 32 ];
SYSTEMTIME StandardDate;
LONG StandardBias;
WCHAR DaylightName[ 32 ];
SYSTEMTIME DaylightDate;
LONG DaylightBias;
Where Bias is difference in minutes between UTC and local time.
