Time zone in VB
Good evening,
Does anyone knows an VB6 application, or DLL, that can give the Time Zone offset and DST rules for a specific location, or region?
I know the Olson database. But I can't seem to find one VB6 application of it. And the DLLs I've found are hard to implement (in C# .NET).
Kind regards,
JKepler

This Vb6 program (with source code) will extract and display all Time Zone info:

Re: Time zone in VB
What are historical times? Do you mean when some country changes their start/stop dates for daylight savings?
AFAIK these get updated with a new version of Windows, otherwise you would have to update a registry value to do it yourself.

Re: Time zone in VB
Hi, No. I mean for instance for the year 1967 in a determined region; does windows has the rules for this year?

AFAIK only the latest Time Zone rules are available in Windows.
For historical values you may want to check:

Other links try google with this search phrase "historical daylight values time zone information"
