Re: Determine Time Zone from Address/Location

Are you using the MapPoint Web Service or Virtual Earth or MapPoint 2006?

From this posting:

2005 September FANTOM PLANET

It looks like Chandu was saying that it's included starting with version 4.0, but I couldn't find a reference..

Re: Determine Time Zone from Address/Location

I don't see anything about it in the FAQ or Fact Sheet for 4.0, so I am thinking he might have been mistaken...

Re: Determine Time Zone from Address/Location

I searched through the MapPoint Web Service SDK and can't find anything about time zones. Web searches didn't turn up anything except some other products that let you look up time zones in various ways from geographic data. It's one of those things that seems like it should be in MPWS.
