Mike,

Search the list archives for TZRANGES EXEC.  It builds the records for SYSTEM 
CONFIG (IIRC by default out to 2042).

If that's not what you are trying to do, maybe the file can be used in your 
EXEC, our you can rip out its guts?

Subject: Determining Daylight Savings Time Status



Hi Folks,



Does anybody have a program or know of a way to determine if a given date
falls within a Daylight Savings Time range?  The CP QUERY TIMEZONE command
will show you defined timezones, and which one is active - but not the
start/end dates of the zone.



I'm trying to avoid coding up a hard-coded table in a REXX exec - but can't
for the life of me figure out any other way to do it, and even though the
zones are coded in SYSTEM CONFIG I can't find any way to query them in VM.



Ideally, I need to do something like:  DST=IsThisDST(mm/dd/yy) - and I only
really care about the calendar date (even though DST doesn't normally "kick
in" until 2:00am).



-Mike
