Parallel.ForEach( issues, x => x.EtaDate = NodaTimeUtil.ConvertToMelbourneTimeZoneFromUtc(x.ETADate.Value)); The timezone will change depending on parameters so want to do this in code.

Parallel.ForEach( issues, x => x.EtaDate = NodaTimeUtil.ConvertToMelbourneTimeZoneFromUtc(x.ETADate.Value)); Davy. Davy, "So you want to keep data which is local, only ever going to be local, only needed locally, never accessed remotely, not WANTED to be made available outside our building, which can only WEAKEN our security by being off site, hosted offsite."
