citadel time wrong after daylight savings change

[alan g.]

I have just noticed that all of my previous alarms in Citadel are now off by 1 hour after the fall time change. For example, an alarm that occured at 4:00 am yesterday (and was in the Citadel database as 4:00 am yesterday), is now shown as 3:00 am after the time change.

Any work arond for this? I am running lookout 6.0

Also, is there a way to change the order of the date field in Citadel? It displays as month first in the date colum. I would like YYYYMMDD HHMMSS so when I export to Excel it will sort corectly.

Thanks in advance.

Only your point of reference has changed. An event yesterday at 4:00 AM Daylight Time is the same point in time as 3:00 AM Standard Time. I believe Citadel actually uses UTC (Universal Time) so nothing in Citadel actually changes. Only the offset from UTC has changed on your PC.

Regards,

alan,

What Bob said is correct.  You can change the way Excel formats the date to however you want by right-clicking on the cells and selecting Format Cells..., then clicking on either Date, Time, or Custom, and changing the format that way, however this will have no bearing on how Excel sorts the columns.  The values are stored in Universal Time format.
