Wouldn't the local computer where the application is installed know the offset to GMT?

On Error *
lcComputer = "."
loWMIService = Getobject("winmgmts:\\" + lcComputer + "\root\cimv2")
colItems = loWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_TimeZone")
For Each loItem In colItems
	?"Bias: " + transf(loItem.Bias)  && Offset in minutes
	?"Caption: " + transf(loItem.Caption) && Description of the setting
	?"Daylight Bias: " + transf(loItem.DaylightBias)  && Daylight savings time setting
	?"Description: " + transf(loItem.Description) && Description of the setting
	?

Or you can use the GETSYSTEMTIME() (GMT time) and make the diffence against the GETLOCALTIME() API to get the offset to GMT.
