Hello all.
I'm trying to get the time in format HHMM in Timezone GMT and I'm
having problems, TimeZone works weird.
I don't know if it is a bug. My Timezone is GMT+1, and I get:
In[25]:= DateString[{"Hour", "", "Minute"}]
Out[25]= "2122" (It's OK)
In[26]:= DateString[TimeZone -> 0]
Out[26]= "Fri 7 Nov 2008 20:22:17" (It's OK)
In[27]:= DateString[{"Hour", "", "Minute"}, TimeZone -> 0]
Out[27]= "2222" (Wrong! this is GMT+2)
I solved my problem using:
In[28]:= DateString[AbsoluteTime[TimeZone -> 0], {"Hour", "",
"Minute"}]
Out[28]= "2022"
but I think there is a problem with TimeZone...
Any hint?
Thanks.
