Searching this newsgroup would have found you the answer you are looking
for several times over however to save you that effort what follows is
what you are looking for.

Extracted and edited from my post made 17 February 2007 19:04 GMT in
the thread "Computers and Daylight Saving Time":

Try and find a copy of tzedit which was part of the Win98 Resource
Kit. [KB247024 "Tools Included with the Microsoft Windows 98
Resource Kit" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=247024)]....

Ah, I see it is available as a download from
http://www.softshape.com/download/tzedit.zip. Extract the three
files from the zip to a folder on your desktop. then run tzedit and
select your time zone from the drop down box. Hit edit and it will
show the offset from GMT and the current start and stop dates/days
for DST. Edit to match the new ones for your location and click OK
to save. I hope this helps.

And another thanks to Mike. I picked it up in the earlier thread and found
it easy to use. If it had not been for the news here, I probably would have
bumped up against the problem.

Norman:

That was meant to be inclusive and 'primary', because without Mike we
wouldn't have known at all, hence "our pleasure".
Probably should have elaborated a bit.

I downloaded the TZEDIT program and made the changes in my computer.
However, when the day came the system did not change the time. Any ideas on
where I went wrong or why it didn't work?

Dave:
There are several things to do correctly,
1. enter your time zone,
2. enter the beginning date and time and the reversal,
3. click on the activation (Apply) button.
If you've done that properly, it should work.
If not, un- and reinstall and try again.
Come back with good news, I hope.

Harry.
