You only have to change TIMEZONE.  For SUNDAY in my job scheduler I have
the following set up to automatically handle it.

IF HPMONTH = 10 AND HPDATE > 24 THEN
   ECHO We are going back to Standard Time
   SETCLOCK TIMEZONE = W8:00
ENDIF
IF HPMONTH = 4 AND HPDATE < 8 THEN
   ECHO Setting clock for Daylight Savings Time
   SETCLOCK TIMEZONE = W7:00
ENDIF

BTW, I use MasterOp as my job scheduler, and I am on the west coast.

Speaking off SETCLOCK ... I am on EDT. My TIMEZONE is set to 4 hours in the
Western Hemisphere. When I go back to EST do I have to correct the TIMEZONE
, i.e. to 5 hours, as well as the actual TIME?
Thanks.

Hi,

Does this look like a bug to anyone?



  :help setclock
  SETCLOCK

       Alters the system time or system time zone.

  SYNTAX


       SETCLOCK  {DATE= date spec; TIME= time spec [;GRADUAL | ;NOW]}

                 {CORRECTION= correction spec [;GRADUAL | ;NOW]}

                 {TIMEZONE= time zone spec}
                 {;CANCEL}


  KEYWORDS: PARMS,OPERATION,EXAMPLE
  :
  :setclock correction=10;gradual
  The NOW or GRADUAL option requires both DATE and TIME. (CIERR 11705)
  :



If it's not a "bug", then certainly the help text doesn't match reality!
