David, as I said in my last email I am running my PC on utc time so hadn't
tried the "time_offset_seconds"
in the IT.INI file, however after seeing the email from Paul, I have just tried
it and it works OK for me.
You must go into IT.INI and uncomment  the line "timezone = UTC0"  then
uncomment the line
"timezone_offset_seconds = -37800" for Sth. Aust. summertime. Don't forget to
change it back to
"34200" seconds when we go back to winter time.  Best of luck David.
