Public Function GetShortTimeZoneObjid(ByVal TimeZone As String) As Long

Description

This method returns an objid for a given time zone. If the time zone is not found, this method returns a value of zero. The time_zone table is cached in the FCApplication object, so this method does not cause a database round-trip.

Note: The time zone used should be the short time zone ("CST") instead of the long one ("Central Time Zone").

Parameters

Parameter Name	Required?	Description
TimeZone	Yes	Name of time zone to get the objid for.

Returns

The objid of the time zone. Zero, if the time zone is not found.

Example

The following example retrieves the objid for a time zone.

**JavaScript:**

var TimeZone = Request.Form("TZ").Item;

var TimeZoneObjid = FCApp.GetShortTimeZoneObjid(TimeZone);
