Thanks for the quick reply. Help me OB1,
I mainly needed to know if I could avert Daylight Saving Time issues by upgrading to Python 2.5. It appears that Python gets it UTC settings from a table in the C library. Does this still hold true for Python 2.5. It looks that it will fail to recognize the new DST 2007 changes. Thanks again, Wayne Hammett - MCSE Snr.

The current release is Python 2.5. That said, can you describe your problem clearly? Do you have a simple script that demonstrates the problem? If so, it's possible that you can get some help from the folks on the python-list@python.org mailing list. At the very least people should be able to tell you if the problem you see exists in later versions or if there's a bug in your script you can fix to avoid the problem. -- Skip Montanaro - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.webfast.com/~skip/ "The hippies and the hipsters did some great stuff in the sixties, but the geeks pulled their weight too." -- Billy Bragg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
