Fred If you DO have to change the calls I would recommend that you take a look at GoFish available on Codeplex ... you would be able to globally change DateTime( to MyDateTime( etc and then try to achieve what you need in the custom functions MyDateTime(), MyDate(), and MyTime()

Any body know of a way to intercept the returns from DATE(), DATETIME(), TIME() etc. for different timezones WITHOUT changing the Windows setting for timezone? We've moved a bunch of applications to the cloud and now have users accessing from multiple timezones, but the application wasn't built to handle that. We can't just change the Windows timezone, as that would confuse the users with their Outlook calendars, or any other time based applications. There are 5 applications and they would have about 9,000 places each in the code would need to be changed if we have to change the calls to DATE(), DATETIME(), etc. to use a different function. Most definitely not looking forward to 45K changes to code! Thanks for any insight in to this (huge) dilemma.
