Microsoft Visual Basic: Zulu Time

205| Thu, 22 May 2008 03:34:00 GMT| anonymous| Comments (3)
How do I get Zulu time without having to code for daylight savings time?
Does a function or existing format exist?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

Normaly VB.net takes the time from the OS, but if you want to change that
take a look for "CultureInfo" settings on MSDN.

I did not find Zulu in the culture settings only in the language, but maybe
you can find for the culture an equivalent.

I hope this helps a little bit?

Hi Matt,

If your clock is set to UTC (used to be GMT) then that is Zulu time. But are
you asking about whatever time the user's timezone is set to?

Thanks everyone for your input. I found what I needed with DateTime.UTCNow.
