Hello,
I have a Silverlight application in which I need to use the DateTimePicker. Based on the user's settings, the user may want to choose/view the selected time in either their local time, or UTC time. My question is, how do I toggle between the two? The value is always stored in the database in UTC format. It seems that the DateTimePicker always shows the time local to the user. However, sometimes I want to display it as a locally converted value, and sometimes, I want it in UTC.
Can somebody please help me with this?
Thank you!

Hi Bo,
In order to achieve your goal I can suggest you to set the Culture of the DateTimePicker and change it when you want the format to be different than the local setting of the user.
Hope this helps.

Is there any simple way to just disable this time zone conversion? If the control is bound to a value 3pm, I want it to show 3pm, every time. I don't want any kind of time zone conversion.
Edit: Never mind, we found our problem and it was not related to the DateTimePicker.
