Hi All

1. I need to convert the local-time of the server on which I run my website
to UTC and I don't want to rely on the server local time and timezone (i.e.
I don't want to hardcode the timezone information), is there a generic way
to do this?
2. Is there a general for converting time between timezones in ASP?

Many thanks

Elie Grouchko
