Daylight Savings Patch
The updates may or may not affect Mr. Candlin at all. If they do, then the
date DST ends is just as important as the date it begins. One or the other occurs in the spring, one or the other occurs in the fall. By convention, MS counts the date in effect for various TZ settings as per (Gregorian) calendar year, so any changes should be made on or about Jan 1, each year. I will be updating my own patch yearly, some time early in the Holiday season. -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "PCR" wrote in message ... I had come to almost believe that up-side-down people like Candlin may legitimately change their dates in October. However, I'm willing to side with Terhune & say you are correct-- that everyone must do it today! Anyhow, TZEdit appears to have worked well for me. -- Thanks or Good Luck, There may be humor in this post, and, Naturally, you will not sue, Should things get worse after this, PCR "Not My Name" wrote in message ... | On Sat, 10 Mar 2007 19:13:39 -0800, "Gary S.

What time zone are you in, Fred? It's important that your Time Zone be
properly set, including whether the current time is Std or DST, not just that the clock be correct. That way, people and other machines know what time it really is for your locale. Read my article at http://grystmill.com/articles/tz_update.htm -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "Fred" sorry@no can do.net wrote in message ... Well, for some reason it did not work on my W98SE ??? Had to change myself ! Fred "Gary S. Terhune" wrote in message ... You have it correct. -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "Not My Name" wrote in message ... Forgive me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the START time for DST be at 2:00 am on the second Sunday in March? Also, Nowhere I read the month of October. To quote from PCR's master post: " United States Beginning in the spring of 2007, the start dates and end dates for daylight saving time (DST) will change to comply with the Energy Policy Act of 2005. DST dates for 2007 in the United States and Canada will start three weeks earlier (2:00 A.M. on the second Sunday in March), and will end one week later (2:00 A.M. on the first Sunday in November). ......EOQ............ b. Select the time that you want to start daylight saving time. In other words, select 2:00 AM. c. In the Last Day box, click the number of the day, the corresponding day of the week, and the month that you want. In other words, click Last, click Sunday, and then click February. See above quote. If I'm wrong, please correct me as I do not want to confuse others nor myself. |
