TIMEZONE attribute

Specifies the time zone offset from UTC, in minutes, to use for the current session.

Data type: INTEGER

Access: Readable/Writeable

Applies to: SESSION system handle

ABL uses the value to resolve the TODAY, TIME, NOW, MTIME, and TIMEZONE functions. ABL also uses the value to resolve the special TODAY and NOW initial values for database and temp-table fields with DATE, DATETIME, and DATETIME-TZ data types.

If the TIME-SOURCE attribute is set, then the TIMEZONE setting is ignored to a value other than "local" or the null string ("").
