Handle time zones with the Time property

To share time stamp values across different time zones (Platforms), use the Time data type in every time zone location.

To share the time stamp as a string, note that when the Time data type is converted to a string (for example, in a script), it is automatically converted to local time. Hence, you lose the ability to adjust it in a different time zone.

For example, to convert the Time property to a string GMT:

Dim localDateTime As System.DateTime;

localDateTime = System.DateTime.Parse( obj.attr.Time );

obj.udStringGMTfromLocalTime= localDateTime.ToUniversalTime().ToString();

To convert the string GMT to a string of local time:

Dim univDateTime As System.DateTime;

univDateTime = System.DateTime.Parse( obj.udStringGMTfromLocalTime );

Obj.udStringLocalTimeFromGMT = univDateTime.ToLocalTime().ToString();
