What is the equiv. to GetTimezineInformation in .Net.
When last I checked, I believe it was in "System.Time" which I guess was changed since 2002?

[code]My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\TimeZoneInformation\", "ActiveTimeBias", &H0UI)[/code]

doing it that way i need to add 60 to it, just want to call it and be done with it ;)

I looked at that class and similar classes and could not find anything to fit exactly what you're looking for. Hopefully I'm just missing something, because it seems odd that Windows API has something that does exactly what you need and .NET does not.

I found a few sites with .NET code that lead me to believe that the TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure is still what you would need to use.
