Hi Dave, that would be great. I'd really like to have a look at that subroutine. Thanks in advance.

Hi, Denis.
Did you ever get a solution to your problem of getting time zone information from a time zone name in PL/I applications? If you have not, I can send you a PL/I subroutine that we have here that does exactly that. Have a good one.

We need this service in our IMS regions and it would be memory eater to enable all regions for Java processing just for the sake of running a single statement. > > Thanks in advance > Denis Gäbler. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ________________________________________________________________________ Check Out the new free AIM(R) Mail -- 2 GB of storage and industry-leading spam and email virus protection. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
