Hi, I'm not having much luck finding information about this but I'm writing an app to dump the file contents of a given MSI. What I'm finding is that when I extract the timestamp by converting the Dos Date/Time data in the FILE_IN_CABINET_INFO structure, I'm off by the timezone difference. I've tried using msidb and cabarc to do the same job and they have the same problem. However, when you install the MSI, the correct (local) time is displayed on the installed file. I'm going with the theory that there's something installed in the MSI itself to allow the correction to be made, but can't find anything to help me. Any pointers greatly appreciated. Thanks. Kev
