I need to change the time zone from "Buenos Aires" to Greenwich Mean Time,
but in list of cities doesn't appear: Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon or London.
As a matter of fact the list above only shows seven cities from the whole
list. What I must to do to change the time zone to Greenwich Mean Time?

Hi Roberto,

Set it to London that _is_ GMT.... i.e. GMT +- 0 Longitude 0.0.0
also btw.
Greenwich is a suburb of London

I know that, the problem is that I haven´t locations at GMT +- 0 in the time
zone list. My question is: Which are the steps to follow to include that
location en the time zone list to proceed according with your advise?

Dear Roberto,

What is wrong with GMT London? That is GMT +-0.

Am I missing something? Please explain.
Thanks

He said he doesn't have that. From the original post, "...in list of cities
doesn't appear: Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon or London".

Dear: "CreateWindow"
In the dialog box "Date Time Properties" there is a combo box in the "time
zone" section (I'am traducing the titles from spanish to english, because I'm
working with a Spanish Version of Windos XP). The combo box list, shows 11
cities, but no one is located at GMT +- 0, that is Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon
or London doesn't appear in the list. So I haven´t that choice available. I
should update the Windows XP, in any uknown way to me, to have available that
cities in the list then, after that, I could choice a city at GMT +-0
location, that is Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon or London.
I hope I clarify my problem. Thanks for all.

Dear CreateWindows:
I believe I found the solution usinf TZEdit for Windows 98!? I added the
Greenwich Time Zone as a "customized" one , using TZEdit. Then I Click:
Start/Control Panel/Date & Time and then, in the combo box list appeared my
customized Time/Zone. I click in that item and voila! It woks. Please confirm
to me if you agree , with this solution or inform to me if there is a better
solution (less anacronic).
Thanks for all.

Dear Roberto,

Sorry I did not understand at first - as Rock pointed out (thanks).

Yes, the registry settings that TZEdit works with should be fine. I'm not
very familiar with them (right now). I recall that they can get complex and
if it works for you - then leave it alone. Should be ok.

I expect you want NO summer time in this machine.

Anyway good! I'm glad you fixed it.

Cheers,
CreateWindow

Hi Roberto

Glad you found an answer that works for you. But if you want to restore
the missing time zones in XP so you don't have to use a custom setting,
MVP Ramesh has a registry file available that should do it for you. See
here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/timezones.htm

Hope this helps :-)
