Hi,

I wanted to know how to display the time zone along with the time in the crystal reports.I want to generate a report based on the time zone they are in.If the user is in ET the report needs to say ET and vice versa for CT.Can some one please help me.


Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
 
I think you need the special field "PrintTimeZone". You may want to read up on this field in the help file, but I'm pretty sure that it uses the system clock on the user's machine to determine the time zone when the report is run.

This may differ if you're using a Business Objects server or similar, as the time zone for the server may be different from the user and would likely print the server's time zone since it is actually running the report for the user.
