If dateAdd worked that way, you'd have to adjust for the server time zone constantly. It doesn't. It's just math. I can confirm that two servers, both running CF9 on Windows Server 2008, both in the Eastern time zone, both recognizing that Daylight Savings Time is in effect, are returning date/time values one hour apart. Moreover, I can confirm that a server in the Central time zone, also recognizing that Daylight Savings Time is in effect, returns a date/time value that is the same as one of the EDT servers, and one hour _later_ (not earlier) than one of the EDT servers. After I've played with the JVMs, I'll report back. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
