I don't know what your timezone is, so I'm going to assume central since you work with acxiom (I do too!)
try this at the dos prompt before you run the perl script. set tz=CST+06CDT or set TZ=CST6CDT or set TZ=GMT-6 (I've seen it all three ways) this will set your tz environment variable for perl...theoretically you shouldn't have to do this. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Goodman Kristi - kgoodm" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 28, 2002 10:38 AM Subject: localtime () > I asked this question about a week ago but still have not found a solution. > > My localtime () function returns a time that is 5 hours ahead.
