Time Zone and DateTime voes.

Hi all,
I have a big problem in my hands and not sure how I can fix this. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have a .NET 3 tier app developed in VS2003 and .NET 1.1. the client is a
windows application and middle tier runs on IIS. Data is passed between the
client and middle tier as DataSets and custom value object classes. The
problem in my hand is that the client application is deployed in different
time zones and the middle tier is in Eastern Time Zone. So the users in time
zones different from eastern time zone see the datetime adjusted to their
local time, which messes up the system. A lot of the datetimes we use are
just for storing dates only the time part is 00:00:00 and the problem is
some user whoose time zone is behind eastern time see this the date is off
by a day.
On searching internet some of the alternatives I found was to convert
datetiemes into string which is not possible in my case becase I have date
calculation going on the client.
What are my options here to rectify this issue ?

Thanks in advance.
