.NET 2.0 - TimeZone Conversion

Question

Hello;

I need help in writing a function which should take a datetime object and target timezone and it should return a datetime object after converting it to the target timezone - WHILE considering Day Light Saving of either target or current timezone.

Also, need a method to enumerate all available timezones.

I have been able to achieve this all in .NET 3.5, but my client's server is running .NET 2.0 and upgrading it is not possible.

Anyone who can help?

Good Day;

Answer 1

Well, there's always System.TimeZone

Answer 2

You'll need something like the Olson database to obtain such info, as .NET 2.0 knows only about the current time zone.
