The United States has planned a change to its DST observance beginning in 2007. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 mandates that DST will start on the second Sunday in March and end on the first Sunday in November. In 2007, the start and stop dates will be March 11 and November 4, respectively. These dates are different from previous DST start and stop dates. In 2006, the dates were the first Sunday in April (April 2, 2006) and the last Sunday in October (October 29, 2006). My systems people are preparing to roll patches in for all the operating systems as well as Oracle code. Has anyone heard about patches required for any Informix code. I understand how Informix uses the system time but just need to make sure that I have not missed something. Thanks Doug
